Here's what your Emerald Green Arborvitaes will look like after 7 years if planted 2.5ft apart. I did top them once and took about 2ft off.

How far away from the fence do you suggest to go? I plan to put for privacy but don’t want to hang over fence. I’m in Cali
@@vanessaalarcon887 I'm in the same boat. Did you ever find a good answer?
@@masterpassword7520 still researching but read at least 2-3 ft away/apart. The side I planned to place the trees is sloped so I may place farther than suggested.
Used trees are cool. Wish more folks would consider re-homing unwanted trees (if they can feasibly be removed with roots intact).
I love the privacy those arborvitae give and they are so beautiful!!!! Looks great!!
Thank you for making this video..We hired landscaping company to plant ten 5 ft tall Emerald green Arborvitaes n they planted them very tight n one by one they are dying 😢..We are not sure of how to care..We invested a lot(for our budget) on these..But the ones that we planted by ourselves are 1-2ft tall n 3ft apart are doing great..
Keep making these videos..
Super helpful! Thank you!! Loved the editing with including the original footage as comparison
"New to me, Arborvitae"
Love the update, bro!
& I'm grateful for your kind 💚
I'm not to sure why this was in my recommendations but I'm glad it was.
Me too. Just bought 5 Brandon Cedars...👍
"I got them used." Love it.
I like my trees fresh from the store!
Growing a solid hedge is done often. You are fortunate that yours stayed nice and green. Some browning out happens in my area MI zone 6. These are very common in many yards, so I said "never". That is until I bought & planted the 1st one, then another, and so on. But a used plant is even better yet if a guy can get them! If I ever got the chance for some used I would find some space for a few more..
I've been looking into these the past couple years. I have 5 acres and have a tentative plan to box in part of my property with giant emerald greens and my immediate back yard with these guys. That 2.5' spacing really looks great as far as dense coverage while keeping the trees healthy and lush.
Good video, Chris. Thanks. I’m glad you’re happy with your plants!
Thanks Micah
Would like to see video on how you transplanted them successfully. Thanks for this helpful vid.
Great set of videos. Could you do another update now that it's been over a year since your last one? I would love to see the progress and health of the trees. Maybe also some more video tour of your deck, cedar fence, and shower. Looks private and comfy! Kudos
I am planting some today and have been going back and forth on the distance apart. They are almost 6' and pretty lush. I don't want to wait years to block my neighbor's windows. It's good to see that 2 1/2 feet apart will still grow up to be beautiful healthy trees. This was my main concern. Thanks for the great video!
Your trees look lush and green, just beautiful!
Thank you for this!! I’m planting some this spring
No prob and good luck!
"I got them used."
My new go to phrase for any gifted / donated plants / shrubs/ trees 🤣
Thank you for all the fantastic info. I am currently looking to do the exact same thing on my property. Keep em coming! God Bless America!
This is exactly what I wanted to see thanks!
They look great. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks. And no problem!
Thanks for updating us I was wondering how your Emerald Greens were doing! They look great!
No problem! Yeah they are holding up well
Are they truly the "Emerald Green" variety?
Looks great I got 2 of these I got “used” too lol but I now wish I woulda did a bunch all along my fence line like you did
They stand there so beautiful - nice and tall.
Beautiful home much blessings 🙏
Thanks Pablo.
That are looking good. Good job
Thanks Quincey
Nice job your yard looks great !
They look like puffy green pillows. I hope mine look like that soon.
Finally! I have been waiting for this update for yeeearssss...
Make sure to stay tuned for the 15-year update. Put it on your calendar
Great info. Thanks for the follow-up tips.
God Bless America! 🇺🇸
just now planting 2.5ft trees that i grew from saplings in pot maybe 3/4" wide stems. putting 4ft apart. good luck future hedge, idk if i will be here to see them be dense and maybe someone will change it. its for the front yard but its a corner house side by stop sign. also want them for neighbor side too to feel cozy. they are good for blocking view of a/c heating unit too which i used and side yard. 6ft would be good enough for me.
How are the trees doing now?
Nice video! This was helpful! Mine are in pots right now but I will see how they do!
Super fun channel! I learn something every video! Keep filming have fun be safe!😎🇺🇸
Bobby was right. Evergreens in general like acidic soils, so hollytone is a good fertilizer. Arborvitaes are the exception. I was laughing when I heard you say “used”! 😂
Very nice job and well explained - all looking good. I'm going to plant the same type of hedge very soon. Here in the UK I am advised that I can leave the hessian wrap (cloth ) and the wire mesh on the root balls when I plant them as they are both de-composable. I am now worried that I should remove them as I think you mentioned. If anyone knows the answer please let me know - I would be very grateful - thanks.
Thanks Brian I appreciate the feedback. Yes I would personally at least put some slits in the fabric. But in either case I'm sure you will be just fine. The roots will grow out of them. I did remove the burlap from mine when I planted
Beautiful landscaping
Thanks Missy
More plant videos please. I enjoy your videos.
Came from the other video to this one. They look great!
Thanks man!
Your trees look good to me. Going to get some for my yard too.
Beautiful hedge. God bless
thanks
Thanks for the information about the distance
Thanks for the tips
Any time
I would like to put a few in my backyard alongside my fence. I have a aboveground pool that is about 15ft from the fence, and I don't know if the roots will affect it.
Very helpful! Thanks!
Looks great. Nice job.
Thanks
Looks so good!!!
Great video information, thanks! 👍
Thank you and no prob!
Great info on the Italian Cypress I made the mistake of planting 5'ft apart center to center & 32" in. from center to concrete wall thinking that would give me a privacy wall from a two-story next door with your experience would suggest going back and installing enter center ones at 30" in. center to center or do you think I will be satisfied at 5' ft. apart for privacy
You're a cool dude!! Thank you for the info!
Glad you found it helpful! Thanks
Awesome update! When you moved the two in the back, did you space them 30in apart like the rest of the hedge or go 48in like your neighbor's hedge? Also, do you have to do any extra work on the ones planted 30in apart to keep them from browning?
i had arborvities last year at my old property wish i knew about those tree ties. snow did alot of damage as they got bigger
Yeah the snow is pretty killer on them
They look good!! I’m working on my arborvitae I’m 1 year in. Thank You ☺️
Thanks. And good luck with yours!
Do you need to worry about how close they're planted next to a cedar fence? Will they start to push the fence?
Any idea how deep and wide the root structure is? I have some half wine barrels that are 16" deep and 24" wide. With adequate drainage, would these be too small?
I love a outdoor shower! 🥰🥰
Yeah man they are great to have
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow sir how much did a tree cost you and how tall do they grow?
4:54 - Great tip, thanks!
The comments you were reading are hilarious!
Lol yea they were
Great video.
Great job!!!
Thanks Evelyn!
Nice wall of green giants!!
Thanks. They are emerald green arborvitaes. I think green giants are different
great info. wish I could find some Used ones ! 👍
Very nice video!
How far did you plant from the fence and what is the ideal distance? Thank you
Great video Chris. I planted 7 about 4 ft apart a little over 3 years ago. They were about 5ft tall when I planted them. Unfortunately I have some very intuitive seniors behind me that love peering over the fence to complain about something. Long story short. My trees are about 8ft tall now. I’m just hoping they shoot up soon but I got quite a gap in two of them. Was this a problem you encountered before they filled in all the way? I can send you a photo if that helps. Thanks for the video.
Oh dear. I planted seven arborvitae in April. They get direct sun all day. Am I in trouble because of those two errors? Yours look fantastic!
Nice video. Where did you get the metal brackets on your fence ty
You can definitely use holly tone, it just depends on where your soil ph is at.
True statement! I should probably sometime
Whatever it is, these Emerald Greens love it
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Yea, sounds like your soil ph is already acidic, which is why plant tone is a better choice. Evergreens love acidic soil.
They all look great! Love the privacy. Where did you get the used trees?
What season to top them? I live in missouri
Your privacy trees look marvelous. I like the 'used' idea, did you know someone or get them online on facebook, etc.?
I'm a beach girl, and I love an outdoor shower. Now, where-ever I live, I like to shower and wash my hair outdoors. Hearing the birds sing and smelling the plants and trees refreshes my mind and my body!
Thanks. Yeah they work really well as a privacy fence. And I got the "used" trees on Marketplace from somebody giving them away. Not really worth it though since it's a ton of work getting them out of the ground without killing them in a little bit risky because there's good chance they will die. Best to do it in the fall just before winter. Outside showers are the best! I totally agree. There's just something magical about it
Thanks for the info👍
No problem!
Thanks!
No prob!
Is it possible to trim them to act as a hedge? It looks like there may be issues with how much green you keep on it if you trimmed.
Hi. Great video! In what hardiness zone or part of the country do you live? I live in Austin (zone 8b) and am wondering if these trees will do well in my zone. Also, I could not find on your channel a video of your outdoor shower. Do you have one? If not, will you make one? Thanks!
GREAT video!
Thanks Amber
Cool stuff
Good video for DIY families....
I live in Massachusetts is it best to plant Arborvitae’s in the fall like now or in the spring
Are there any short varieties of these trees, such as growing up to 5-6 feet max? Or do you just have to cut off the top if they get higher than that?
I'm not sure about other varieties. But yes if you kept trimming them you could probably keep them around that height. You would have to trim them maybe twice a year
looks sooo good... im jealous... but prob need 1 more to cover that UHaul truck tho hehehe
I went to Lowe's yesterday and bought 2..Will buy 2 more each week until I can get a front wall of them in front of the spruces that were already here in our property..They don't do a good job in blocking out the filthy roddy neighbors behind us....By the way I love your spread....
Awesome. Good luck with the row! And thanks.
Yes, God bless AMERICA, and God bless you! I love the Green Giants, I'm going to get me about a dozen for privecy for spring 2024.🎉❤😊
Thank you!❤
Thank you
No prob Barbara
I’m getting the 3.93 gallon emerald green arborvitaes from Costco how far apart should I plant them? I want them as a privacy screen. So I don’t want any gaps. Please let me know :) thank you
hey like your style had to sub
Thanks. I appreciate that!
Oh damn it why I couldn’t see this video last year ! 😓 I planned 10 5’ - 6’ 36 “ apart 😭 I wonder if I can relocate them now the only been in the ground since October of last year ? What do you suggest?
Great video
I’m interested putting a few up near the pool, I’m afraid it will penetrate the concrete patio
You helped alot I was wanting mine to fill in fast. 2.5 feet it is
Awesome. Good luck with them
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow thanks, I'm actually working on getting some in ground right now. 25 5 footers to put in for first round.
how much sun do they need, and re they acidic?
I ripped out 10 Cryptomeria's and replaced with 10 8-10 ft Emerald Green's in September and they have been starring at me ever since and not growing. I am going for the hedge look that you have, and planted them 3 feet apart, root to root, and am hoping the fill in. Also, I did NOT remove the burlap when planting them, was I supposed to? I live in Charlotte NC and we have some pretty bad red clay, hoping it won't be an issue as the previous owners Cryptomeria's were big and beautiful. The only reason i ripped them out was to make room for a putting green. Happy to email you pictures for your thoughts...Thanks!
They should come back to life. May take some time. I think your supposed to cut the burlap But im sure it will be fine either way. If you see them start turning brown then that's when you should throw the towel in... If they green they alive
" I gotem used " LMFAO ,I Know what you meant asap, lol
If you leave something in front of them that blocks the sun. That section will die. I piled up some firewood on one side of my 5 trees. The bottom facing the firewood died on all 5 trees.
Correct
Yeah I'm sure the back of mine are super bare
I planted 10 trees 4ft apart and now pretty concerned that it’s too much space in between. These are young American Pillars, 4-5ft tall... do you recommend I move them closer together? (I planted them a week ago)
No i would leave them at 4ft. Better off with more space for sure. Just going to take longer for a privacy screen
cool, thanks
No prob
In March of 2019, I had 15 3ft Arborvitaes planted and some a growing good and some are struggling but they are still very green just not as tall like I want them. Can you suggest how I can get them to grow quickly to the size of yours? Do you recommend tree fertilizer spikes?
What fertilizer are you using now? I plugged the linked to this stuff I use in the description. Plant tone. Maybe have the soil tested to see what it's lacking?
online said 2 to 3 feet apart so i went 2.... do you think its going to be an issue
Big thumbs up to you! Thanks for the shots of your trees. I have 5 of them that are right at 29 yrs old on the side of my house in Idaho. They are TALL!!! I mean I dont think I have seen any that are like this. They are about 20 feet plus tall. I need to cut about 2-3 feet off the top. They are blocking my TV reception of all things. What would you suggest??? I do over the air TV cause the satellite tv is too much money.
Thanks man. and You can trim the tops no problem and they'll be fine.
The tags on the Emerald Greens you can get at Lowe's or Home Depot, and elsewhere, usually indicate they'll grow to 12' tall and 4' wide. I have another variety in my landscaping that came with the home that are much taller, and much wider. They're on the replace list with Emerald Greens, and I'll place 'em about 4' to 4'6" apart.
Looks great, but why not plant something like juniper Spartan, they grow high enough to give great privacy from neighbours, they look great & don't have to be pruned "topped" as much if at all. For all the negative comments, it's usually from ppl that have never planted a thing in their lives. Otherwise great job
How did your buddy lose a tree in a snow storm? I live in the Midwest and am thinking of planting these...
Yeah the snow broke it
Once that section of the plant dies off (the bare area), can it regrow back out?
