There is some mature deciduous (sp?) forest back there, but another developer is developing back there so I don't know how long it will last, hence the need for more screen trees. I want something fast growing, thats likely to be available in 6-7 foot trees, and that can tolerate quite a bit of shade (some of the trees will go in the margin at the edge of the forest). I'm willing to fertilize the hell out of it to make it grow faster if that will help. The location is Maryland (for all you folks from California, thats the state north of DC). I've had Eastern White Pine recommended, any other ideas? -JCP- -- If guns are outlawed, how will we shoot the liberals...
