We are building a 2 acre lake on the back of our new property. I plan to plant the back edge (which is near a good bedding area) with a big greenfield, a few persimmon trees, and maybe some sawtooths. On the east and west sides of the lake, I need to plant something to help shade some of it for evaporation control, and just general shade. What types of trees would be good for this that are fast growing?
