Hi all!
Short time lurker, first time poster here.
Our pool is ALMOST done, and we're already realizing that there are certain parts of our neighbors yards that really do not make for good privacy. We live in the middle of hill, so our neighbors on both sides can see pretty easily into the hard from their hills (see attached). It's not SO bad, but both neighbors have kids and we don't want to deal with sad kiddy eyes watching us enjoy our backyard.
So what are some ideas for a nice relatively quick-growing plant that we could put in the areas indicated in the picture to help block the view from those vantage points? Thought about Italian Cyprus, but I think the regular versions grow too big and the dwarf too small. Open to other ideas.
Location info: Southern California, very clay-like dirt, fairly steep incline.
Oh, ignore the obvious need for a retaining wall in the space behind the pool. It's in the works
Thanks!

Welcome to TFP. You've got an interesting dilemma there especially since you have that fabulous monster tree!
