McGowan's planted Muley (sp) grass around the one at our previous house. It grows pretty tall and thick and has pink flowers in the fall and it can be cut down by the utility people and is supposed to grow back. We never had to test that theory though. Also, I think the restriction is only for the front of the boxes. If the side you want to hide doesn't have the latch and hinges, you can probably plant closer.
