Stuck in traffic
Milton didn't hit my house very hard, but what it did do was knock over a crape myrtle and an avocado tree in my backyard. These weren't huge trees, but they did provide some visual screening between my and my neighbor's house. It's an inward corner lot, and because the house next door is a bit too large for the lot, it sits only about 10 feet off the line that separates our two properties. There's a 5' wooden fence on the property, but the neighbors have a two-story house and I only have a single-story, and to top it off, their house is a couple of feet higher in elevation than mine.

I'm looking for suggestions on what to plant that could provide some visual separation, as they now have an unabated view of my back patio, pool deck, and living room. There's also a big elm tree on the property line, so it needs to be stuff that can thrive in a somewhat shady environment.
