Hellllloooo, are there any garden designers on here? Or just anybody who knows about gardening?

I'd like to grow a hedge down one side of my garden, but it is quite a thin garden so i don't want anything that needs to be too thick. Also i'd like something that is quick growing, that could get too about 6 feet in a couple of years. Finally i don't want anything too prickly as i have young kids.

Thanks V

Hi there...

after analyzing your problem, I can only suggest you to go with bamboo tree. There are several varieties of bamboo trees are available in the market.... In my opinion Bambusa boniopsis - Bonnie Bamboo will be the best option for you. It is a small-growing bamboo with a delicate appearance. Fine leaves that droop to the ground when young. Can be used as a privacy screen in applications where a shorter bamboo is required. Will grow to 20' tall with 1" diameter culms. Min. temp. 27 deg F. Min USDA zone: 9b.
