Lots of years ago we tried to put fruit trees on the north fence line in the backyard. Every year we had high hopes as they grew and got green and even some initial fruit. But always a disappointment. So we decided that a green wall back there is the way to go and bought 16 1′ emerald green arborvitae from Fast Growing Trees. We’ll see how they grow this year and if they establish properly we’ll do the east fence line and part of the west side.
