I have a couple of questions on conifers I hope you might be able to
help with.

In the past I have had not much luck with Chamaecyparis, they always
seem to suffer from brown windburn, no dogs to blame, Firs and Pine
seem to be OK.

1. I hope to buy some Junipers, will I have windburn problems with
these ?.

2. My neighbours drive is only 1.5M from a high narrow window in my
lounge, since I would like some privacy I would like something that
would grow high (2M) but not get too bushy. I have thoughts of the
Juniper "Skyrocket". I am aware that tree roots can damage
foundations, do the root systems of conifers (e.g.Firs, Pines,
Junipers) propose any less of a threat than those of deciduous trees
?, i.e. would my proposed Juniper be a bad idea ?, any other
suggestions for a privacy screen?.


TIA

Paul

any other
suggestions for a privacy screen?.

you could stick trellis up and grow climbers in pots, or anything else in a
pot if worried about the foundations.
