Hedge plants - conifer trees
Conifers make wonderful hedges - fast-growing, evergreen and with dense foliage. They have their downsides though - they create shade, they make the ground beneath them dry, lacking in nutrients and acidic (their dropping needles changes the soil), so few other plants like to grow near them.
