Arborvitae Green Giant Thuga plicata 'Green Giant' Hardy, Fast-Growing, Fragrant Privacy Screen! 3 feet or more of growth every year!

It's one of the fastest growing of all Conifers. This very rare hybrid between Thuja plicata and Thuja Standishii Arborvitae will put on 3 to 5 feet of growth per year! And not only is it quick -- it's also fragrant, densely clothed right down to the ground, and resistant to adverse weather from heavy ice loads to high winds to drought! Even deer leave it alone! Elegant and uniform, Green Giant's conical habit needs no shearing or pruning, though you can trim it to desired size if you don't want it to reach its full size of 30 to 50 feet tall, 10 to 12 feet wide. Few trees are easier to grow -- just water it in well the first few seasons, and it will take off in your sunny to lightly shaded garden! This is one tough customer in the garden, tolerating almost any soil and resistant to damage from ice and snow, cold and heat. Green Giant is able to withstand drought well, exhibiting no significant pest or disease problems, and is highly deer-resistant! You just can't find a hardier, more vigorous tree for a perimeter planting, windbreak, privacy screen, or dramatic specimen in the garden! Green Giant's most vigorous growth will be in full sun, but it will also perform well in light shade.
