I don't have a lot of land - just 1/4 of an acre in a New England historic district, so the house and carriage house sit on a good chunk of it. On the north side, I have planted 25 arborvitae. Some are staggered to make at least a 12 foot thick and 25 foot high living wall...add 3 spruce, a bunch of Scotch pine and a little fenced in area for dogs to potty...well, their ain't much left! I think I planted 92 trees thus far, but a lot of them are little boxwoods, holly, azaleas and dwarfs.
The front lawn is gone, the front lawn is gone, heigh-ho, the derry-o, the front lawn is gone!
