I have a post in the Southern California forum in which I asked about screening recommendations. This link has a picture of my neighbors house that I want to screen out. His two story back house overlooks my yard.

I ended up settling on B. Oldhamii. I purchased four 3 gallon plants to cover a 38" x 25' bed that I had cut through concrete. I am building a 2' raised retaining wall.
In the other forum they had recommended mixing another bamboo to give me better screening.
With such a narrow bed, would I be able to mix another species?
What would you recommend that I mix with the Timber Bamboo?
The local Lowes is currently carrying Alphonse Karr, Buddha's Belly, Golden Goddess & Golden Bamboo. Will any of these work?
One last question...When I cut away the concrete, I was left with a hard packed clay. How would I condition the soil? Or do I dig it up and replace it with top soil?
Thank You
Ralph
