Emerald Green Arborvitae Care
View Full Planting & Care Instructions
Sunlight
Emerald Green Thujas grow best in full sun (6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day), but they can withstand partial shade (afternoon sun is best in this case).
Watering
Water your new tree 1-2 times per week for the first month, then once a week. Water more frequently if it is dry and hot. Water your tree by placing a water hose at its base for 20 seconds. Emerald Green Thujas will establish after 6 months and regular rainfall will provide sufficient watering.
Fertilizing
Use a general evergreen and shrub fertilizer in the Spring to support the growth of your tree.
Perfect Height for Privacy, Even in Small Spaces
Why Emerald Green Arborvitaes?
Ready to cultivate your own privacy fence or lush screen of greenery? The Emerald Green Arborvitae is the go-to. Easy to grow and sized perfectly, these hedge trees are ideal for tight areas. And their shimmering emerald color and disease resistance make them extremely popular.
The Emerald is your best choice for a medium-sized privacy screen. Just plant these amazing hedges in groupings for a tidy, neat look that never needs trimming. The Emerald Green Arborvitae is perfect for planting next to foundations or other tight areas where you need an attractive evergreen accent tree that grows hassle-free.

Healthy Plants
Plants arrived in a timely manner and were very healthy looking upon opening
Purchased 4 of the 3-4ft
Purchased 4 of the 3-4ft a month ago and so far I’m loving them…they arrived healthy looking and packed well and they’re still looking healthy…I would recommend them to everyone
repeat customer
I have gone back to your store, several times. I have finally completely surrounded the backyard, with your beatiful arborvitae. The trees seem to do well in central Ohio, even in windy area, but I did lose a couple (years ago) in an extremely cold and harsh winter, where temperatures repeatedly went below 0, and the weather was also dry. I recommend the trees, which I have purchased in both small and larger sizes.
Bright green and healthy
The very healthy plants arrived packaged very well. Bright green and succulent I planted them in a spot that gets good water and sun.
