Hello! Looking for plant/tree advice to add privacy between two double-storey blocks of flats in Melbourne.
We want to plant something in raised garden beds along a 10m section of fence in a concreted communal area, we’re hoping to grow something around 3-4 metres tall, with dense foliage for the privacy screening. The area gets some late morning to midday sun but is also shaded by both buildings. Is growing something to a height of 3-4 meters in raised gardens beds (sitting on concrete) possible?
We’re considering bamboo (which grows well at the back of the neighboring block) but also thinking natives like lilly pilly would be better. Ideally need something that doesn’t need too much maintenance and that also won’t drop too much mess on the concrete.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
