The Emerald Green Arborvitae is the most popular choice for homeowners seeking a classic, sophisticated privacy screen. Known for its shimmering emerald-green foliage and perfectly symmetrical pyramidal shape, it provides a "neat and tidy" look that enhances any property value.
Key Features & Benefits
Lush, Year-Round Colour: Unlike other cedars that may turn bronze or brown in the winter, 'Smaragd' holds its vibrant, bright green colour throughout all four seasons, providing a consistent backdrop for your garden.
Perfectly Symmetrical Habit: This evergreen naturally grows in a dense, narrow pyramid. Its elegant, formal appearance makes it look professionally manicured even without constant trimming.
The Ultimate Privacy Hedge: When planted in a row, these trees create a thick, feathered wall that blocks out wind, noise, and prying eyes, reaching a mature height of 12–15 feet while staying a manageable 3–4 feet wide.
Compact & Vertical: Its narrow footprint makes it an excellent choice for foundation plantings, framing entryways, or acting as a stately "exclamation point" at the corners of your home.
Slow-to-Moderate Growth: Its controlled growth rate means it won't quickly outgrow its space, making it much easier to maintain than faster-growing, "wilder" hedge varieties.
