Re: Tall, thin screen -for shade


There have been great suggestions for a screen tree.  I especially liked
the espalier citrus.

Does anyone have suggestions for a similar, fast-growing tall thin screen
that will grow in shade - never any direct sun until about 18 feet.  It has
to be thin, to grow along and hide the ugliest building wall in San
Francisco.  I have thought of bamboo, but don't know which varieties would
be appropriate (has to grow at least to 20 feet to hide the wall) and don't
know if the owner is up to digging through the very rocky clay soil deep
enough to put a barrier in (to keep the bamboo from spreading away from the
wall).
