A year-round golden glow for your landscape
This vibrant golden arborvitae shines as a striking addition to any yard or landscape. Its stunning year-round yellow hue not only brightens up your garden space but also provides an eye-catching privacy screen or hedge that stands out throughout the seasons. The evergreen foliage ensures that you'll enjoy its delightful color all year long, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere in your outdoor environment.
Easy to care for, this tree requires minimal pruning, making it perfect for busy homeowners. A quick shear in spring is all that's needed to keep it looking tight and upright. With its adaptability to various soil types and simple watering needs, this tree is an excellent choice for those seeking a low-maintenance yet beautiful landscape enhancement.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location that receives full sun for optimal growth and beautiful color. Dig a hole that’s twice the width of the root ball and just as deep. Gently place the tree in the hole, ensuring that the top of the root ball is level with the ground. Backfill with native soil and compost, then spread a layer of mulch 3 feet around the tree to conserve moisture, insulate the roots, and suppress weeds.
2. Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry spells. Ensure the soil stays moist but not waterlogged. A good rule of thumb is to check the top inch of soil; if it’s dry, it’s time to water.
3. Pruning: This arborvitae requires little maintenance. A light shear in spring helps maintain its shape and encourages dense growth. Remove any dead or broken branches as necessary.
4. Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to support growth. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application rates and frequency.
