Have you done any research on the tree?

http://www.parkseed.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... rch%20Main

It shows to be able to be planted in our zones but it gets 12 feet wide....how is that going to work in your 2 ft wide planting space?
Also, I would recommend checking out Howard's book "Texas Trees" that would recommend a good privacy tree that would do really well in our climate.
