Have these along the fence line in my back yard. Hardy AF and grows at a high rate. If you wish to keep them in check you need to trim quarterly or every other month.

Elaeagnus pungens


This. I have about 200 feet of this plant or bush. It grows well in any environment and makes a great barrier. Also known as Russian olive or silverberry.

1000% would put bamboo. Would 1000% tell DR Horton I was putting up Bamboo unless they wanted to pay to plant some other hedge up.


While I get your point, D.R. Horton does not care what he plants on his land. They built the neighborhood, sold the houses and moved on. Invasive plants are the new homeowners’ problem.

bamboo can be an option just make sure you choose a clumping type and not a running type

Giant timber bamboo is well behaved and will fill a spot in a season

I like fences - you don't have to trim then every quarter
