Good Morning,Our corporation will be planting Arborvitae on a 4′ tall x 130′ long berm. As tall as possible.Any suggestions on planting and getting a good root establishment?
Green Giant Arborvitae are not only large but grow quickly once established and deer don’t eat them as they do Emerald Green and Dark American arbs. Adding Espoma Bio-Tone starter food to the planting hole will give them a great start. Make sure that you don’t bury the stems too deep and don’t pile mulch up against the bark of the trunk either. HERE’S a link on proper planting….not of an arborvitae but the same method applies all shrubs and trees.
