Thuja occidentalis 'American Pillar'
The Full Speed A Hedge® American Pillar is one of our most popular varieties due to its fast, full growth. After the first year, this tree grows more than 3 feet every year until it reaches its mature height. Plus, since it's extremely narrow, it’s an ideal screen for even tighter spaces.
The American Pillar’s dense growth habit and manageable width make it perfect for borders, street hedging and beyond
Since it can grow up to 30 feet, it's even well-suited as a buffer for second-story balconies and decks

Happy Montana Report
A higher rating may be forthcoming. For now, tree arrived in good shape. I planted it and I water it every day. Whether it will rapidly grow to 20 feet is to be determined. Made a couple purchases from Fast Growing Trees in last couple years. Good products that arrive healthy, and good customer service. Gotta love it.....
