Hi all:

I have a view I need to hide (next door, ugh) and I need to make INSTANT privacy along one side of my garden, for a length of about 40 feet.

Please, does anyone know of a relatively inexpensive solution? Something natural looking that blends in with the landscape (i.e., no PVC or white vinyl).

I've looked at sites that sell "willow" fencing and that look is very good for my Tudor-style house and garden but they don't seem to sell it *tall* enough for what I need. I shop online so if there's a reputable online retailer with such fencing I'd be interested in checking it out.

Thank you so much for any help and I'm also open to other ideas! The main thing is I need privacy so as to block out LIGHT coming from next door as much as possible.

Edited to add: I already have planted trees and shrubs but they grow slowly and I would like some kind of permanent fencing stuff, but I can't afford to have a real fence put in nor would the homeowners group allow it. Unfortunately.
