Screening a Two Storey Neighbour

A ground level neighbour is easy to screen. A two storey home or a raised balcony looking down into your yard is a different problem, and it needs the right height to solve.

Why fence height is not enough

A 1.8m fence and a head-height hedge stop someone standing at ground level. They do nothing for a window or deck that sits above the fence line. To break that downward sightline you need height, and you need it from day one rather than in five years.

Go tall, and go advanced

Our Ultimate size plants at 2.1m to 2.5m, which is above head height immediately and tall enough to interrupt the view from most second storey windows. Because we plant advanced stock, the screen works the day it goes in, not after a decade of waiting.

Placement matters

The closer the hedge sits to your outdoor living area rather than the fence, the more of the overhead angle it blocks. A little thought about where you sit and what they can see goes a long way. Our screening studio lets you set your height and see the effect before you buy.
