Dreaming of green hedges and sound-proof shrubs? Spring might feel like a long way off, but it\u2019s just around the corner, and you\u2019ll need time to plan your landscaping so that you can make your spring privacy plants a reality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But where to begin? Here are useful tips and our three favorite Delaware native privacy plants to get you started.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Start planning now.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It takes a while to turn a design idea into reality \u2013 when it comes to landscaping, plan at least one season in advance. If you really aim to renovate your yard this spring, talk with a landscaper this month to stay on track.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Know the benefits. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why install a privacy fence when you can let gorgeous, living shrubs do the trick? Living fences muffle urban noise by up to <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gfc.state.ga.us\/resources\/publications\/greenbuffersforscreeningandnoisereduction.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">50 percent<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which is almost as much as what a stone wall can do! Plus, when you plant native shrubs and hedges, it\u2019s good for the local ecosystem and native pollinators.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Strategize your privacy border.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Estimate how tall and wide each plant will be when it\u2019s grown, so that you can space each shrub out and they don\u2019t choke or overshadow one another. Plant a variety of plants in layers, so that you create a natural, earthy space that doesn\u2019t appear too staged or planned.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Our 3 Native Picks<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Sweetbay magnolia.<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A flowering, native tree that can grow up to 60 feet, the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sweetbay magnolia shows off creamy white spring and summer flowers with pleasant fragrances.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Flourishing in full sun to partial shade, it prefers moist, acidic soil.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Eastern red cedar<\/strong>.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This evergreen, which typically grows up to 40 feet tall, is resistant to weather extremes \u2014 drought, heat and cold. This tree prefers full sun and tolerates most soils. Added perk: If you enjoy birdwatching, it attracts a variety of birds including sparrows, mockingbirds and warblers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>American holly<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>.<\/strong> Growing as tall as 50 feet and as wide as 40 feet, the American holly is the poster child for backyard privacy as both an<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> evergreen and ornamental tree. It conveniently maintains its foliage year-round and prefers full sun and partial shade.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Create the private backyard of your dreams this spring! <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.borsellolandscaping.com\/contact\/\">Contact the experts at Borsello Landscaping<\/a> to get started.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everything You Need to Know About Privacy Plants for Spring Thinking about installing privacy plants in your yard this spring?
