What ever your choice I would plant the beautiful (decidious) Swedish Aspen. It grows to 40 ' in a short 6 years/ and side by side would make a beautiful screen April through October. Then when the short slow growing evergreens take over you could cut them or thin them to fit into a beautiful blend of decidious with color and shape with the conifer of choice. This is an example of several. The two in the center are 4 years old the ones against the house between the two are 2 years old and I think you can see the mature one on the left is 8 years old. Their color in the spring emerges as a golden emerald, then in the summer you can see, and finally in the fall they are a unique yellow with tints of orange on the tips. Oh they are planted in unamended Clay and love it.
