Hello Kind Helpers!

We need a natural, cottage-style solution to hide a chain link fence along the northern border of our lake lot. The fence belongs to the state because we live next to a public access. There is a nice little woodland strip between the fence and a boat launch.

Does anyone have any good natural-looking screening ideas for a long narrow area that's mostly shady with a max of 3 hrs sun? We'd like to keep it looking cottage-style (old-fashioned/low maintenance) like Grandma would have done. 4-5 feet or taller would be great. One suggestion was the Carolina Allspice...? Anyway, that doggone fence is a drag!

Thankee!
