3. Lattice - If you're big on plants and flowers, lattice will likely suit your taste. There are several different types of lattice, and if you're a DIY type of person, you could even make your own at a low cost. Plant flowers that have climbing vines like morning glories, and before you know it you won't even be able to see through your lattice.

4. Shrubs & Trees - When it comes to trees, shrubs, and bushes, you have an array of options. Just be sure to always read the dimensions of the plant prior to planting it, and make sure you space the plants accordingly. Hydrangeas and butterfly bushes are quite common plants for privacy that look gorgeous!
