If you want a living fence that grows quickly and keeps its deep green color year-round, these Thuja Green Giant specimens are a reliable choice.

They’re a popular selection across the United States for hedges, sound buffering, and landscape structure because of their vigorous growth habit and adaptability.

How fast will these Thuja Green Giant trees grow in my yard?

Thuja Green Giant is prized for rapid vertical growth compared with many other evergreens. Young plants commonly add 3–5 feet or more per year under good light, water, and soil conditions until they reach maturity.

• Typical growth: 3–5 feet per year when established in full sun.
• Mature size: can reach roughly 40–60 feet tall and about 15–20 feet wide unless pruned.
• Annual care: a yearly fertilizer and regular watering during establishment maximize growth.

What site conditions do these arborvitae prefer for best performance?

Thuja Green Giant thrives in full sun but tolerates partial shade; it’s adaptable to a variety of soils so long as drainage is adequate. This variety is hardy across USDA zones 5–9, making it suitable for a wide geographic range.

• Light: full sun to light afternoon shade for best density and color.
• Soil: fertile, well-drained soils; amend heavy clay with organic matter.
• Hardiness: performs well in zones 5–9 across most of the United States.

How do I plant and care for these potted trees after delivery?

Plants ship in nursery pots and should be placed into prepared holes at the same depth as the root ball. Water thoroughly after planting and follow a regular watering schedule for the first year; prune only to shape or limit width, and apply fertilizer annually to support steady growth.

• Planting: dig hole 1.5–2 times root ball width, loosen soil at the bottom, set plant, backfill and water.
• Watering: keep soil consistently moist for the first growing season, then reduce frequency as roots establish.
• Maintenance: annual feed, light pruning to maintain desired height and spacing for a hedge.

Will these trees provide privacy and reduce noise effectively?

When planted in a row with proper spacing, Thuja Green Giant forms a dense visual screen that blocks sightlines and helps break up wind and roadway noise. For a continuous hedge, stagger and space plants according to desired final width and maintenance preferences.

• Privacy: planted 3–6 feet apart for faster screening depending on desired density.
• Noise reduction: the thick evergreen foliage helps diffuse sound and creates a visual barrier.
• Windbreak: effective once plants are established and forming a continuous line.
