Fast-Growing, Deer-Resistant Hedges for Zone 6 New York

Top picks for a sunny, basketball-tough hedge: 'Green Giant' Arborvitae (deer-resistant, fast, prune in spring) or Ligustrum (Privet)—bulletproof, dense, non-prickly. Both handle impact and sun. Avoid Leyland cypress (snow damage) and yew (slow). Boxwood is classic but shorter. Holly likes acid soil under pines. Firethorn is fast but thorny. Space Arborvitae 5-6 ft for quick screen, 10-12 ft for gradual.
