The Arizona cypress and the Deodar cedar are good choices for privacy screens but have different advantages and disadvantages.

The Arizona cypress is a native plant to the southwestern United States, so it is well-adapted to the hot, dry climate. It is also a fast-growing tree, reaching a mature height of 20-30 feet in just a few years. The Arizona cypress has a dense, conical shape that provides good privacy, and its blue-gray foliage is attractive year-round.

The Deodar cedar is a larger tree, reaching a mature height of 50-70 feet. It is also a fast-growing tree but not as drought-tolerant as the Arizona cypress. The Deodar cedar has a more spreading growth habit than the Arizona cypress, and its silvery-green foliage is also attractive year-round.

Here is a table comparing the two trees:
