Growing Information

Green Giant Arborvitae thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers deep, well-drained soil but adapts well to a wide range of soil conditions. Water daily during the first year to help establish roots, then reduce watering as the plant becomes drought tolerant. Suitable for USDA hardiness zones 5 through 9, this tree’s broad pyramidal growth habit makes it an excellent choice for natural or manicured privacy barriers. Plant trees 5 to 6 feet apart for optimal screening effect.
