National Plant Network Arborvitae Grower Tree

Growing as a slender tree reaching a maximum height of 12 ft., Emerald Green is an ideal decorative accent or privacy screen for the landscape. Planted in groupings 2 ft. to 3 ft. apart, this attractive evergreen forms a dense hedge that creates privacy and serves as a windbreak. While its pyramidal shape and restrained habit will not overwhelm the landscape, it can be pruned as desired for an elegant, formal look. 'Emerald Green' tolerates heat and drought once established and withstands temperatures down to minus 40°. Its foliage develops in vertical sprays and releases a pleasant evergreen aroma when crushed.
