Privacy that belongs in your landscape
A hedge should screen the view you want to soften while leaving room for healthy growth, access and the rest of your yard. RLC helps you choose the right plants, starting size and layout for the space—not simply a row of plants along the property line.
Choose the right screen for your property
Sweet viburnum: A lush screening option for locations with enough room for its mature size and regular trimming.
Podocarpus: A refined, upright look that works well where a more structured hedge is preferred.
Clusia: Bold foliage for suitable sites; exposure and local cold conditions matter.
Simpson stopper or areca palms: Other options where the site and the desired style call for a different texture or form.
The best choice depends on sun, drainage, available width, desired height and the level of maintenance you want. We discuss those tradeoffs before selecting plants.
A continuous hedge starts with a complete plan
Review the sightlines. Identify the view to screen, boundaries, access points and existing irrigation.
Select size & spacing. Balance your budget, the starting appearance and room for long-term growth.
Prepare & plant. Include any agreed removal and bed preparation, then lay out and install the hedge consistently.
Plan establishment. Discuss watering and ongoing care so the new plants have support after installation.
What homeowners want to know
Will I have full privacy immediately?
That depends on the plant type, starting size and spacing. Larger plants can create more screening at installation; smaller plants need time to fill in. We will discuss the expected starting appearance instead of promising an instant wall.
How many plants will I need?
We consider the measured hedge length, mature width and your screening goal. A generic spacing rule can lead to overcrowding or gaps.
Can you remove an old hedge?
Removal and preparation can be included in the estimate. Let us know about existing plants, stumps, fencing and any access restrictions.
What affects the cost?
Hedge length, species, plant size, removal, access and irrigation needs all matter. An approximate length and photos help us understand the scope.
