I have a really tricky area within my backyard, right up against the fence that separates my yard from the society behind me.
I do not like the family behind me.
What I need is a perennial explicitly a minimum of four feet in rank. Five and a half or bigger is ideal, but preferably no trees. Something ideally okay near being in with the sole purpose 2-3 hours of direct sun during the late afternoon (the neighbors have what I contemplate is a norway spruce right against our fence) and partial/full shade for the rest of the day. The soil back near is dusty and dry, but if there's something that fits those other two conditions that needs good soil, I can compost the heck out of it.
Help?
Answers: Check into a perennial call Joe Pye Weed...or try a bridal veil bush...If there is a fence to climb...a climbing hydrangea...they start a short time slow...but once established they are beautiful and would provide good coverage.
You might also try some variety of speedwell. Sometimes it is called Culver's root. Those things grow pretty densely, and have purple or white spikey flowers within bloom. Mine doesn't get much sun and it is still doing well at in the region of 4 feet. It can get 5 foot or more.
It is also a wildflower, so highly adaptable to adverse conditions once established.
