You have many options when selecting shrubs to add privacy at the back of a property. Some good shrubs to consider that offer privacy include Ilex, viburnum, dogwood-red and yellow twig. Oleander is a fast-growing option, while edible options are also available such as serviceberry, choke cherry, or miracle berry. Consider setting up a trellis next to the fence and planting ivies, beans, pickles, morning glories, berries, honeysuckle, wisteria, and grapes for a long-term effect.
