Hi all,
I'm redoing my foundation planting and looking for an evergreen to replace my sickly azaleas. The qualities of the evergreen that I'm looking for are given below, starting with the most desirable given first.
Much thanks,
Audrey
Hanokii cypress. Awesome structure and foliage, beautiful tree.
oops, sorry, it sent before I realized you wanted shorter. check out the dwarf evergreens for what you're wanting, even a Mungo pine has awesome shape and texture and needs no maintenence for what you're looking for.
Cephalotaxus harringtonia 'Duke Gardens'.

Consider a holly. There are many varieties. I have Oregon Grape root (looks like a holly but it's not) that is about 3-1/2 foot high. It does not seem to be bothered by pests nor deer. You should also consider the conditions (light, pH, moisture, etc)
