Privacy Screening
Privacy screening solutions for your garden, backyard, front yard, patio, deck, pool, along fence, courtyard, steep hill, by driveway, curb, corner lot, desert, dog friendly, easy maintenance. If you have an area that needs privacy or sound barrier, consider Green screening! Green screening is an all-natural way to screen unwanted scenery, provide privacy, break sound and wind. We accomplish this by planting Native & adapted trees such as Pines, Magnolias, Junipers, Hollies and Tx. Mountain Laurel. We also utilize larger Texas Hardy shrubs such as Glossy Abelia, Winter Honeysuckle, Texas & Silverado Sage.
Planting more trees are always a good thing! We choose specimens that are water wise and ecologically beneficial to you, the soils and environment. We pick from a palette of suitable plants for North Texas and buy from local nurseries and farms. Foremost factors in picking screening plants are its height and width of growth in relation to amount of screening needed & how much space you have. Keith will consult with you on options specific to your tastes and needs. Other considering factors include shade and sun exposure, ecological value, color, blooming seasons, texture and contrast.
