Default Lanai privacy

Our home had a viburnum hedge along the entire back of the house when built. We added a bird cage and rerouted the existing plants (With proper permits) and added a few more to allow for privacy along the extension made by the bird cage. We love both the privacy and at the same time the enjoyment of making friends of our neighbors.
Only draw back is the need for regular trimming.
Leave at least 4’ between the plants and the house to allow for maintenance and access.
PM me if you want
To see what it looks like.
PS. The existing bottle brush trees we have a scruffy in comparison to the viburnum. We are considering pulling them out and replacing them with more viburnum.
