A very forgiving arborvitae species that is tolerate to many soil types, pHs, moisture and sun conditions. Makes for an excellent privacy hedge, but requires yearly shearing to maintain its beauty - shear them leaving the bottom wider than the top to prevent bottom die-off. Deer can harass these trees during a rough winter, but its among their least favorite foods.

A simplified form of the White Cedar hedge is the Emerald Green hedge. Plant them 1 foot apart and they will become a dense hedge quickly that requires minimal shearing. They prefer to grow pyramidal, which prevents the bottom die-off of other arborvitaes. They stop growing tall at 15 feet, so no top pruning is required to maintain hedge height.  If you want these are a tight hedge, you need to plant them closer than you would think; keep it to 2'.

Green Giant is the fastest growing Arborvitae available.  It grows to a height of 50-60’ and a spread of 10-15’ at maturity. Very rapid grower – 3’ per year or more.  Provides nesting sites for a wide range of birds and small animals.   More resistant to deer browsing than other arborvitae, but anything can be deer food under the right circumstances.  These are listed as zone 5, but take care when planting in areas where the ground can get colder than normal for the area; these will do poorly in those areas.

These cold-hardy, adaptable evergreen trees serve many purposes in the landscape, especially in sites that are dry, alkaline or windy. The foliage of scale-like needles is attractive but prickly. In late summer and fall, many junipers have blue-green berry-like fruits, actually modified cones, that attract birds. Because they are quite salt-tolerant, they can be used near roads, driveways, and sidewalks. 

Mature Height = 40'-50'

Mature Width = 10'-20'
