Now is the time to direct-seed plants like Swiss chard, pictured, bush and pole beans and sunflower seeds. (Cyrus McCrimmon, The Denver Post)

Have you ever wondered what the neighbor thought of the person who said, "Good fences make good neighbors?" Nevertheless, there is some wisdom in the thought. Evidently the saying has been mentioned in many countries, cultures and variations from the beginning of time. My favorite is from Benjamin Franklin - "Love thy neighbor, yet don't pull down your hedge."

PLANTS FOR PRIVACY

To gain privacy or block wind, noise or undesirable views, try hedges, trees, fences, walls or berms. Water features often soften the noise of nearby busy streets.

Building or planting for screening near property lines can be tricky. It may seem unfriendly or change sun and shade patterns for surrounding yards (including your own). Use common sense. Don't plant trees or shrubs that will outgrow their space or extend too far into neighbor's yards. Avoid plantings that drop tree fruit or that are weak- wooded like silver maple, tree-of-heaven and willows. Consider mature size and root system; a tall shade tree should be planted 12 feet or more from sidewalks, driveways or walls.

Check with your municipality's building codes for rules regarding privacy fences, trellises or plantings. Special permits may be required; some homeowner associations have ordinances. Make certain you are building on your property line. And always call 811 Utility Notification of Colorado before you dig.

Inform neighbors of planting or building projects close to property lines. They may want to share expenses or coordinate with you by using the same service provider.

Start with a simple drawing of the area that needs screening. Note where the sun travels throughout the year. Think how your screen will look year-round. A combo of evergreens and deciduous plants screens in winter as well as summer.

Consider growth rate. Fast growers such as aspen may be short-lived. On the other hand, if you want screening and want it yesterday (and don't mind pruning in the future), try putting up a trellis or wire structure for climbing vines. For sunny spots consider clematis, grapevines, honeysuckle, trumpet vine, silver lace vine, Virginia creeper, hops, wisteria, and hardy kiwi. For shade to part shade consider euonymus ("Coloratus," "Chollipo" and "Sarcoxie" can be trained to climb), and Boston ivy. Virginia creeper, clematis and honeysuckle can take part shade/sun.

Small-space evergreens for sun include upright junipers "Blue Arrow," "Spartan," "Moonglow" and "Wichita Blue." Compact spruces and pines make excellent live screens for sun locations, but are slower growing. Newer, taller yews for shade are adaptable for screening and their dark green color is a plus.

Just because: James Earl Jones in Fences

BRASLIA - Liliana Ayalde couldn't have picked a worse time to start her job as U.S. ambassador to Brazil.

Ayalde, a career diplomat who spent most of her 30 years focused on Latin America, was excited about her first opportunity to serve in Brazil, the biggest country - both geographically and economically - in the region. But she arrived in the capital of Braslia on Sept. 16, just days after documents released by Edward Snowden revealed that the National Security Agency had monitored the communications of several heads of state, including Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff.

Ayalde hadn't even left the airport in Braslia when she was confronted by reporters asking about the scandal. The next day, she helped coordinate the phone call between President Obama and Rousseff that ended with the cancellation of Brazil's planned state visit to Washington.

"When I first was offered the opportunity, I was delighted and very honored because we were at the height of our partnership on a broad array of different dialogues - anything from energy, education, commercial matters. Just an amazing variety of common interests," Ayalde said last week. "Little did I know."

Monday marks a key moment toward mending that tattered relationship, when Vice President Biden visits Brazil to watch the U.S. national team's first World Cup match in Natal. Biden will use the trip to meet with Rousseff, marking the highest-level meeting between the two countries since September's NSA revelations.

Given how difficult the past nine months have been, it will take more than one meeting to set things straight.

The United States and Brazil have long had a complicated relationship. As the two biggest economies in the Western Hemisphere, their governments have worked closely on a wide array of economic and political issues. That relationship has been strained frequently in recent years, given Brazil's close relationship with American adversaries Cuba and Venezuela, Brazil's refusal to assist in the U.S. war in Iraq, and other issues.

As Brazil's economy and influence have continued to grow, some think the country has positioned itself as more of a competitor to the U.S., not a close ally.

"It's very clear that they see their influence in the region inversely proportional to U.S. interests," said Frank Mora, who was the Defense Department's assistant secretary for the Western Hemisphere until last year. "In their minds, if U.S. influence in the region is increasing, that means they're decreasing."

That could help explain why Brazil reacted so forcefully to the Snowden disclosures while other countries, such as Mexico, quickly moved past it, said Mora, who's now the director of the Latin American and Caribbean Center at Florida International University. Not only did Rousseff call off the state visit to Washington, but she took to the podium at the United Nations and accused the U.S. of a "violation of human rights."
