Can anyone suggest a native plant/shrub that would best suit a 40 metre boundary fence for privacy?

The property faces a road, the shrub/tree should be no taller than 2-3 metres, must be Australian native and resist cooler climate/frost. Leura NSW

Lillypillies don't usually take much frost so I don't think they would be any good at Leura. Grevilleas with spiky, needle like leaves usually take the frost better than the broad leafed ones eg Robin Gordon.





Many natives frost when young and alot simply won't take the cold of Leura. Have you got a local Depart of Forestry Nursery they would be the best people to help you. There would be natives suitable to your area that are good for hedging but you may need to get good advice to save you money in the long run. I find some of the labels on the nursery bought plants are misleading regarding frost.





There are some good nurseries in the mountains such as Mt Boyce and the Plants Plus nearby perhaps they can help with local advice.
