Arborvitae

If you’re looking for fast-growing, easy-care evergreen trees to use as a privacy screen or hedge, arborvitaes are hard to beat. Plant several of them in a row, and in just a year or two the lush, dense foliage will fill in to create the ideal living fence. But don’t overlook the many other ways you can use arborvitaes in both formal and informal garden designs. These versatile conifers are suitable for almost any purpose.
