Green Giant Arborvitae is one of the most popular fast-growing evergreens for creating privacy screens, windbreaks, and natural borders. Its tall, pyramidal form and dense, rich green foliage offer year-round coverage and beauty. Tolerant of a wide range of soils and weather conditions—including heat, humidity, and even moderate drought—this tough and reliable conifer is also deer-resistant once established. It grows quickly, but maintains a uniform shape with little to no pruning.
