Depending on your climate this may or may not be worth considering.  This answer is politically incorrect now, but 30 years ago when initially planted it wasn't and I still love my hedges.  They are ivy planted on cheap wire fencing  attached to metal farm posts.  It was cheap took minor training at first and pet proof.  I do hedge them once a year to keep a narrow profile on my side of the fence and on both sides on cross fencing.  Horrible neighbors are hidden from view.  These are older photos from the last two years to give you an idea of what they look like.  I have fences from three feet high in the front yard to seven feet high in the back yard.  The hedged greens from the ivy we chop with the lawn mower and it makes for superb mulch for beds.

The first picture is in complete shade from a sequoia tree, holly tree and a row of fir trees.  The second picture is the front of the house.[ATTACH=full]7740[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]7739[/ATTACH]
