Although I am not yet a resident of the villages, I hope to be one day. I am looking at new construction. As you all know, the Courtyard Villas have the enclosed back yard. My realtor has suggested I can plant tall bushes such as Upright Bottle Brush plants along the fence line for added privacy and to soften the look. He did not say anything about planting a certain distance from the fence line. I am now wondering if there are planting restrictions for the newly built homes which are back to back (those without fences). He indicated I can remove the small bushes put there by the builder and replace with taller plants for added privacy. Sounds like I need to have another discussion with my villages realtor to get clarification. Thanks everyone.
