2. I N T R O D U C T I O N The outstanding, low-maintenance Thuja Green Giant Arborvitae can be utilized in the landscape for a number of tasks. It was introduced to the American National Arboretum in 1965 and has since become a favorite among homeowners and landscapers.

4. W H E N T O P L A N T Although they can survive in some partial shade, arborvitae grow at their fastest in six hours of direct sunlight per day. The more sunlight, the better, as they tend to become scarcer in locations with more shade. When the ground is still workable but the tree is not actively developing, you should plant your Green Giant between late fall and early spring. W H E R E T O P L A N T

5. Make a hole that is two to three times as wide and deep as the root balls or pots the individual green gigantic trees are in before planting them. Tear the roots apart and place the trees in the holes with the tops of the roots just below the soil's surface. Backfill the holes with the earth and gently tamp them down to make sure there are no air pockets and the dirt is firmly in place. H O W M A N Y T O P L A N T You'll need to decide how many goods to buy after selecting a site. Determine how many linear feet you wish to cover. Starting with an InstantHedge that is supplied in a set of 10 linear feet and is pre-spaced is the easiest way to plant a hedge. H O W T O P L A N T

6. W A T E R I N G As they grow, your Green Giant trees will need nutrition to be strong. Each spring, treat them with an all-purpose, slow- release, granular fertilizer with a high nitrogen content, such as 16-5-9 or 18-5-12. Water it in as recommended to fully incorporate. When the trees are established during their first and second years on your property, they will need weekly watering during the growing season. Arborvitae require soil that is moist but not waterlogged. Water should be sprayed on the soil a few feet distant from the trunk rather than the roots in order to prevent root rot. A deep soak is always preferable to a quick, shallow watering. F E R T I L I Z I N G

7. P R U N I N G To assist the roots to retain moisture, spread 2 to 3 inches of mulch out to the dripline of the trees, being careful to keep it away from the base of the tree trunks. For this, most types of mulch, including bark, leaves, and even rock, are suitable. Green Giant Arborvitae grow between 3 and 5 feet every year after being planted. You can cut them down each year to the desired size with clean, sharp shears or electric hedge trimmers. Arborvitae only develops new growth at the tips of their branches, never in the older, bare spots close to the trunk. M U L C H I N G

8. G R O W I N G G R E E N G I A N T A R B O R V I T A E I N C O N T A I N E R S Around a pool, patio, or front entrance, Green Giant Arborvitae can be planted successfully in pots as accents. Choose a large pot (18 to 24 inches in diameter) or a half barrel for trees that are 6 to 8 feet high. Verify sure the pot's bottom has holes so that the water may drain. If water accumulates in the pot, your tree can be at danger of developing root rot. Place a loose, well-draining potting mix within the container to allow for root extension and air circulation. Never use garden soil, soil from a commercial garden, or dirt from trees. It is too dense and compacts too quickly in a container, suffocating the roots.
