How fast will my living fence become a complete privacy screen?
All plants we recommend have their growth rates posted in our options section. Trees will grow at different rates depending on water, soil and sunlight conditions so growth rates and results will be different in every instance. As an example only, the photograph below was taken on June 1, 2006. This is a row of Leyland Cypress trees that we planted in October 2003. These trees were our 5 foot to 6 foot fifteen gallon trees at the time of install. They were planted on 8 foot centers in direct sun with a drip irrigation system to ensure good watering. As you can see, these trees are now approximately 15 feet tall! Remember all growth rates will differ depending on circumstances but the Leyland Cypress will grow extremely fast under the right conditions.
