Where to plant Privacy Shrubs

If your home is completely visible from the street, you’re far more vulnerable to someone with less than honorable intentions. A thief can easily see ways they might enter your home, as well as paths to avoid. On the other hand, privacy shrubs can be lovely additions to your garden while offering protection from would-be prowlers.

Privacy Shrubs are suited to many locations on your property. If your front yard is small, you may want to consider a medium sized shrub planted along the street. A good privacy shrub candidate for this spot might be one that grows 6-8 feet high and which can be kept trimmed in a fairly thin profile.
