I'm somewhat familiar with silver sheen and silver magic, and would appreciate your opinions in terms of *growth rate* and *density* between silver sheen, wrinkled blue, oliver twist, and silver star, based on my previous message. Thanks again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4168201662932781326.post-80779855974628611012012-05-18T22:59:27.854-07:002012-05-18T22:59:27.854-07:00Thanks for your reply.

There's about 7 feet in between. We plan to keep the tristania from growing large. Reason for wanting to fill up the space between the trees is lack of privacy. I hope to have a fast screening plant. At least 8' tall. Oliver Twist looks more of a moderate size compared to silver sheen, but wonder about its growth rate and how much density it is.

I have also planted Hopseed Bushes close together to make a hedge.

Between silver sheen and purple hopseed bush (Dodonaea viscosa 'Purpurea), which one grows faster? Can I plant two purple hopseed bushes only 2 feet apart? And another two feet apart with Brunfelsia australis (or Floribunda)? My goal is to make them grow above my 6 feet wall. Thanks! - from Southern CaliforniaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
