Trees suggestion for a backyard 730 inch (width) x 300 inch (depth)?

My backyard is 730 inch wide and 300 inch deep. I have neighbors one small street away from my backyard. I need to plant some trees to create privacy. Since the yard is not that big, I am afraid to plant huge trees. For small to median size trees, do you have any suggestion? I know I will have one Maple, but what else?

If you want privacy, try Arborvitae (or similar evergreen). Maples are great for shade, but not much for privacy. Be sure to check the mature size of whatever you get, to make sure you're not planting a maintenance nightmare.

If you are looking for some privacy trees in a small area consider upright forms such as an Emerald Green Arborvitae. They will grow ten to twenty feet high and four to five feet wide. They are evergreen which would give you color year around. They grow well in zones four through eight.





There are other small evergreen trees. Take a look at my gallery of plant section of my website and browse through the Arborvitae section as well as other sections to see if you can find any other tree specimen. I hope this has helped some and good luck to you. I would suggest the evergreen so you have the privacy year around.





Have a great day!
