You can put lower frequency elements BEHIND higher frequency
elements because the high frequency reflectors isolate other
elements to the rear.  

That is NOT the case for vertical separation where the lower
frequency elements are symmetrical about the mast as are the
higher frequency elements on the triband antenna.
