The best in depth video I've seen on these trees BY FAR! Thx
Fantastic video. As other viewers noted, this one video contains more information than all others on TH-cam combined. Thank you for producing this!
This is the best in depth video I've seen about these trees. I'm in Northeastern Vermont and just planted 15 beautiful Canada-grown Green Giants. Now I know exactly how to care for them.
How are your Tuja's doing one year in? Can you tell me how large they were when you planted them, and how much they have grown in the one year?
@@313girl5 They were about 4 feet when I put them in, and they've all grown at least a foot. Some of them are over 6 feet tall now! They did have a few brown leaves right after I put them in, probably due to stress, but they are all green now.
@@ginacirelli1581 Thank you ❤️
This is TOP QUALITY plant content, my Swedish friend. Love the timestamps. Love the comprehensiveness. Love love love.
Many thanks my friend. Excellent job! I am very grateful for your efforts and video.
Thank you for thorough description.
Very informative! Thank you very much for providing such a wonderful guide!
Well done! Very thorough and clear. Thank you for the insights 👍🏾
Thank you so much for this video. There is no better guide on Thuja out there.
What an amazing video! I am new in Sweden and this will definitely help me create a hedge from Thuja :)
Thank you. There is more info in this video than I've ever seen in one place!
9:54 - Such a good point. Great video, great style of presentation and organization. Thank you!

Great video and information. Recently planted 30 Green Giant Arborvitae. Lost 13 this year. Some from dry conditions others from fungus. Replaced them and we are now doctoring them all to survive. From NC USA.
So helpful…..thank you!……You have beautiful hands.
Excellent in depth video thanks.
Learn some new info! Thank you!
Very informative video. Probably the best on here. Everyone should have to watch this video as a condition to purchasing a Thuja😃. I have planted a total of 18 over the course of 3 years. 100% success rate so far. I still haven’t stopped researching information on them.
Thank you. very helpful.
Rly usefull info ,thank you !
Me first .. hello again : ) I don't know this plant, it's very interesting
wonderful and useful info, thank you! :)
Good job. Thank you!
tusinde tak for en super video
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
Amazing video
Very informative! :)
Hello from America! Can you make a video on how to make your houseplants get big? Specifically aroids please. I love the look of a plant with big leaves growing up a totem. I’m currently working on getting Scindapsus pictus exotica and monstera adansonii to do that. Thank you and I truly appreciate how informative your videos are.
Thanks for the info. I have 10 of them in my boundary line, they are 2 years old and not doing so good.
Great video!
Complimenti 💚
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this super detailed video. I just ordered online 9 Thuja Smaragd (120-140cm ). We are aiming a height of around 180cm. So i am not cutting the tip until that reaches that height. However for the sides, i can only start pruning it after 2years once Thuja are stable or it’s okay to start pruning as soon as the next spring. Appreciate your advice.-Netherlands.
Nice Elaboration
My new Conifers Sensei!
Thank you for the most useful video on the subject by far! Is there any chance you could do a similar video on the Leyland Cypress?
I've had a terrible time trying to replace several arborvitae that were destroyed by a trailer fire almost 27 years ago. Been replacing the dead ones with 5 footers, they live for 4 years on average then die off. I'm going to try one more time this year and will be removing the burlap as much as possible to see if that helps. All the others I planted in 1991 have thrived and are around 18 feet tall.
thank you.
Very helpful tips 👌
What type of hedge is that in the back? I have eastern white cedars planted this year, a single row about two feet apart and they are all 7 to 8 feet tall right now. I wanted to know how long it would take for them to grow in to create a hedge?
Thank you, 4 Green Giants going in the grown today!
Mange takk .
Thanks I purchased 25 trees this year I wish this video was available sooner! Still thorough and super useful information , please do another video for ficus benjamina, great job thanks again
How much do these trees cost?
@@elliottpeabody1287 I got them from Home Depot around 6ft tall, $30 each
@@Migrant2011 Thx! City? State?

Thanks so much for this; you just saved me investing in a Thuja hedge along my driveway (which borders a parking lot where salt is used during our long HZ5 winters)! YIKES. Back to the drawing board ....
I have 400 hedging Green Emerland Thuja Swedish bred trees .I thank Sweden for this plant as made my garden rooms in rural Latvia.I like you using non metric measurements 6.foot 4 inches makes more sense to this English Baronet
Great video, new sub here.
GREAT jOB.
Hi! Great Amazing information! How many year max or at what maximum height would you recommend keeping a thuja in a pot/container ?
Great video.Thank you for sharing your knowledge.I have a question about my tuja: since some mounths they are become dark green ( not brow or black) and they have lost their bright green color. Do you know the possible reason? Thank you in advance
Just watching you day after I prune tip of me Thujas. Hope I didn't completely destroyed my future hedge
How often should I be watering these thuja hedges after planting? You said to keep the soil moist so does that mean daily watering?
How far away from a fence should I plant the arborvitae, so it doesn’t damage the fence?
Mulching the close area around the plant helps ?
What are the drawbacks of planting in January (on Pennsylvania, US)?
I have a 2 years old cedar edge it is growing well , i noticed the new growth on the top is bending down , what is causing this ??
Hello!
Am I suppose to remove the brown cones myself? Or leave them on the leafs?
Thanks
My “professional” arborist screwed up last year and topped my hedges. We are about a foot short of the height we wanted them to be, will they be okay? Also, do I just leave the fallen needles under the tree? Can there be too much mulch? Hi from BC 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Wonderful video. I missed only one thing - what approx distance should be between Brabant thujas, when you plant them in a row for a hedge.
Yes I second this question! How much spacing should there be to build a single hedge like you guys have? Thank you!
What’s better if you had to pick one? To much water or to little water?
Can I cover the earth around Thuja trees with decorative bark?
I have Thuja plicata hedging planted 5 years ago. Leaves dieing mainly at bottom and middle so it's not water problem, I think its Blight so how to stop this as its killing my trees.
I live in the desert. All the leaves of my new arvorvitae dried out, but stayed dark green. The young 30 cm. is still in its original plastic liner pot. Did it die completely or will it grow back? 🇺🇸🌵🌲
I want to put my Thuja in fairly moist soil. (wet actually) Can I build up the soil to keep it our of the water? Make a mound arund the plant .
If you cut(prune) it down to the trunk because its just too wide, will it start budding new branches from the trunk or is the tree just dead at that point?
Hej , Tack för video , jag har planterat 50 st Tjua , måsta jag skydda dem med skuggnät ? eller dem klara sig på vinter , jag bor i stockholm Zone 2
Can you fertilize thuja green giants with fish emulsion?
Hello is it ok to use 25 gallon ooze tube for slow drip watering for newly planted 3-4ft height trees? I just planted 13 today and due to the green giant pyramidal shape, its fit kinda snug from the bottom. My landscaper thinks this should be fine. But I wanted an expert opinion.
Hello ! I have sown in my garden a row of thuja occidentalis smaragd at a span of 1 meter between them. I do not wish to shear them at all and . I wonder if it is true that the width of a fully grown thuja smaragd is 1.5 meters would then my thujas grow well without to get brown when come fully near each other ?
We have dark green leaved and blue cones clove like thuja in Pakistan and it is ornamental tree. It tolerate out what very well if watered well. Tell about the care of that verity
Hello - thank you so much for this wonderful video. I wonder if you can help me. I have 3 large Thujas that were planted 2 years ago in September, when they were already over 3m tall. We live near Chicago (zone 5b, average temperatures ranging from -11C to +30C). They have grown to about 4m tall now, and I actually want them to stay around 3m. Would it be ok to cut 1m off their top, or would that be too much stress? I also didn’t know how to prune them and I didn’t want to stress them for the first couple of years so I left them alone, and they are now looking scraggly, with not much green in the middle. This summer they do have many cones. How much should I prune the sides? Maybe 10cm? Most of the lower-middle branches are about 120cm long from the trunk, with green growth on the tips, about 30cm. I would greatly appreciate any advice so I can help my Thujas look better.
I have arborvitae nearly 18 feet tall and I was told that they would not grow anymore. They have now grown about 20 feet tall now and I had them cut down about 1 foot last year. I have plans to cut another foot off this year and trim the sides slightly. Can I safely cut them down again? If so, by how much? More than a foot?
Could you please talk about leaders when you want your arbs to grow conically?
I believe you have to choose the best for your application and try to look and feel through the arborvitae that you are interested in and if there's too many competing stems originating from the base, watch out, but if there are only smaller side branches and a lonely single strong leader, pick that one.
If you really have to, you can trim and shape the plant anyway you want, but I personally prefer the very vertical lumber shape if at all possible.
Who knows, in 30 to hundreds of years from now it could be seeing a saw mill, even if I don't get to use it as lumber or shingle material.
@@richtomlinson7090 Thank you for an insightful response. I appreciate your video and answer to my question.
@@cynthiabercaw3462 oh it isn't my video even though I'm part Swedish, but I myself want one strong leader for quick vertical growth instead of wasting that growth on half a dozen competing upright stems.
@@richtomlinson7090 Ahh OK I see. Thanks for explaining and I've been out today tending to my arborvitae hedge. You've inspired me.
Is it really kind to this Thuja to shape into like Yew into shapes Topiery
we dont have autumn fertilizer at home depot
Ska man beskära Thujan direkt när man har planterat den?
Amazing video. Thank you! Any possibility you could one on Hydrangeas?
Question:
So I have 7 of these.
They are right on my property line and my neighbor doesn't want them to grow over to his side. Can I trim them flat like a wall? I've seen regular arborvitaes done that way but not sure if Thuja's are ok too. Thank You!
Wow, I wish I have that issue on my property. These are beautiful trees and I don’t know why they are complaining. They could put a fence on their side for suggestions.
I have a green emrald arb I want to transplant. Right now it is against a privacy fence and dead on that side for lack of sun. Transplanting to full sun. So the question is, will the dead side fill in?
@customvideo454 Several other people said "yep" so....I already transplanted the bush so check back with me at the end of the summer and I will give everyone the actual results.
When I had to wrap some 11 foot sycamore tree, I told some girl in the parking lot that I was protecting it from the coming hurricane of a ride home, because essentially letting a plant experience 55 mph is a lot like a bad storm.

Has anyone ever dried and burned this as incense? Does it smell quite a lot like cedar? Thanks
So how far apart do you plant them to form a hedge?
40-48 inches
