Good choice Dave. That is what I would do, and may soon.

Tony the reason I liked the Hemlocks so much is they can be pruned, sheared and stay very dense. You can keep them 10' tall forever as long as you prune every year. Makes a great fence, hedge. But with this bug problem it isn't worth it. Too expensive to keep it at bay. I think Dave is looking for a large dense, relatively fast growing plant for privacy and not so much a border, hedge. Most any plant can be keep in bounds and height as long s you keep after it and prune. Once they are too big to control you are out of luck and better off leaving them alone or you will end up with an ugly plant most likely.
