Some new additions to the yard

We've been looking to put in a couple of bigger plants in the back yard. Mostly to block the view to the street and the parking area. Julie and I chose some pittosporums.
We built a nice planter out of scrap fence wood (like we build nearly everything in the backyard) and planted away. Some of these things can get huge (like 25 feet), but you can also trim them up easily to be a hedge of any size. We're thinking of putting one more in the ground to spread out near the fence.
