Bark screening gives more privacy and looks good

you could put a plain board behind ( leaning on the 3ft fence) then staple ( as I’ve done to my garden fencing) a wicker/bamboo screen to it) keeps your privacy x

DIY trellis planters? Lots of plans online and you could have an evergreen vine or use fake stuff.

Bamboo would be ideal but it also spreads like a mad thing.
