Thuja Green Giant


Description:
One of the fastest growing of all Conifers. This very rare hybrid between Western Red Cedar plicata and Thuja Standishii Cedar will put on 3 to 5 feet of growth per year! And not only is it quick -- it's also fragrant, densely clothed right down to the ground, and resistant to adverse weather from heavy ice loads to high winds to drought! Elegant and uniform, Green Giant's conical habit needs no shearing or pruning, though you can trim it to desired size if you don't want it to reach its full size of 30 to 50 feet tall, 10 to 12 feet wide. Few trees are easier to grow -- just water it in well the first few seasons, and it will take off in your sunny to lightly shaded garden!


Notes:
Ordered from the Wayside Catalog and planted fall 2006 on west side of driveway. Lost in 2008.
