| Hello everyone! I asking for some help finding a plant or combination of plants for a tight space in my landscape. I'm trying to create some privacy in front of an aluminum fence. The space is 5ft long and 3 ft wide and I'm trying to get something atleast 5ft tall. Is there anything that would fit the bill? I basically need something narrow that grows tall. (doesn't really need to be tropical just fit with other tropicals) Thank you!! |

| Cannas come in dwarf and tall varieties. The tall should be perfect for you. You can get a lot of different colours and patterns in the leaves as well as flowers. They can provide all year colour and look very tropical. |

| I doubt if Cannas would be tall enough. Why don't you try the Lombardy or Pencil Cypress. It is tall and extremely thin and doesn't look bad in a tropical setting. Good luck.- Ian. |

| How about a vine? You could attach any needed supports to the fence. Sorry, don't know your climate to offer specific suggestions. Around here, the fence would be covered in 6 months, even if you didn't plant anything. |
