The pickets in my backyard fence are so dried out people can look through them from the building behind us. So when I saw the Amazon listing for the ColourTree Artificial Hedges Faux Ivy Leaves Fence Privacy Screen Panels I thought they would be a perfect solution. First, here are some the features listed on Amazon: Densest ivy coverage on market, made to be realistic and natural, made of commercial standard UV stablized PE, fade resistant, UV resistant, water resistant. 99% blockage provides no see-through full privacy, covered by high density ivy and the additional mesh backing, both are tightly attached to the mesh panel, significantly prevent leaves from falling.
And The Giz Wiz take: These panels are not really that great. Some of the ivy fell off as I was just unrolling the screen out of the box. And 99% blockage? I'd say mine was more like 70% blockage after I installed it on the fence. It would be way too much trouble to take it down and send it back, but we came up in a decent solution. Watch the video to see what we did. If I were rating it on Amazon, I'd give it 2.5 stars.

I bought the 39" X 98" $39.99 and the 39" X 138" $59.99, but there are many other options.
