Any suggestions from anyone who might have any ideas what to plant in a
large tub that will grow 10' to 12' foot tall that would screen a
neighbour's window.  I have no flower bed/soil as patio, hence the tub.
Can be evergreen or deciduous, would get a little early morning sunlight
from the East.

Thanks very much!

were first grown in this country for that purpose as a screener ?

Why do you need to screen the window?
