Let's see. The button junipers are low maintenance and very hardy (there are other junipers too, some grow higher than others). Hawthorn bushes are hardy and there's a lot of them around here, you'll need to trim 'em a bit, same with podacarpus, but either of those are a good choice too. Annetta is another easy bush type that's easy to care for, and last I'll suggest coonties , which are quite tropical. Good luck!
Coonties are native to Florida, grow slowly, never need trimming and won’t grow so high that they cover your window.
