Privacy Screening & Screen Planting in Lake Norman NC
Screening is a layout problem before it is a plant problem. We figure out which sightlines actually bother you, then plant the right species at the right spacing to close them off as it grows in.

Privacy Screening FAQs
How fast will it fill in?
Depending on species and starting size, meaningful screening typically takes two to four growing seasons.
How far apart should screen plants go?
Spacing follows mature width — crowding a row causes dieback in the interior.
Can you screen a second-story view?
Yes, with taller material and layered placement, though it takes longer to achieve.
