Pick the hedge that fits your property
A good privacy hedge balances speed, final height, maintenance and conditions. Sun, wind, salt spray and irrigation all matter. Tell us the length of the run, the height you want and a photo of the area — we’ll recommend a plant and a count.
| Plant | Look | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| Clusia | Thick, rounded leaves; dense | Fast privacy, wind and salt tolerance |
| Podocarpus | Narrow, upright, formal | Tight spaces, clean HOA look |
| Cocoplum (native) | Glossy, natural | Lower water, native landscapes |
| Silver buttonwood (native) | Silvery foliage | Coastal, salt exposure |
| Areca palm | Tropical, airy clumps | Pool screens, soft tropical look |

Frequently asked questions
Which hedge grows fastest for privacy in Miami?
Clusia and Podocarpus are the most common privacy choices. Clusia fills in fast and handles wind and salt; Podocarpus gives a narrow, formal look. Cocoplum and silver buttonwood are strong native options.
How far apart should privacy hedges be planted?
As a starting point, 3-gallon plants are often set about 2–2.5 ft apart and 7-gallon plants about 2.5–3 ft apart for a quicker screen. Spacing depends on the plant, height goal and budget — we’ll recommend a count.
Can you install the hedge too?
Yes. We deliver, prep the bed, plant with quality soil, mulch and set up a watering plan. Larger runs and HOA projects can be scheduled in phases.
Do I need HOA approval?
Many HOAs regulate hedge height and placement. Check your community rules before ordering — we can share plant specs for your submission.
