Kelly, my neighbor put in a 100 ft fence of what I believe is called
Manhattan Euonymus. It is evergreen, even tho the leaves are rather
large and do look deciduous! Grows like a weed, spreads just as
wide, and if I did not have to prune them back twice a summer, I
would say that they are ideal bushes for a screening. She does not
especially water them, she never fertilizes them, they just grow!
They are planted getting the full brunt of our westerly winds, and
are protected from the direct sun most of the day by the white
pines over their heads.
