Fast Growing Privacy Trees

We consider privacy trees that can grow 2 feet or more per year to be fast-growing. These trees can be planted closely together to quickly form fast growing hedges, privacy screens, windbreaks, and sound barriers. A majority of these trees are evergreen, but there are deciduous privacy trees like the Lombardy Poplar.
