Good afternoon,
I would like to create a privacy screen on a terrace by planting in a row of troughs no wider than 40cm (16 inches). The height is limited to about 150cm (59 inches) due to an awning.
Grasses and similar plants would be nice, but of course, they should not take until midsummer to reach a size that provides effective privacy.
Does anyone have tips on which types/species of plants would work well here?
Thank you!

True ivy is poisonous, which many people apparently don’t know. I suspect the common type we have is not as harmful?
However, there are species that were apparently even planted around castles as a form of defense against enemies.
I hate ivy. It has strangled many trees on my property (and the overgrown neighboring property). I’m now trying to kill it somehow (the vines on my property are not an issue, but the ones from the neighbor’s land keep spreading over...).

I see what I see...
Of course, it could be that the tree coincidentally had another problem at the same time.
The term "suffocating" was meant more figuratively; I didn't mean that it literally strangled the tree, but rather that the plant simply overgrew around the tree to the point where it no longer received enough nutrients and therefore died.
