Perfect Privacy for Smaller Spaces

The Emerald Green Arborvitae gives you an elegant, low-maintenance, and perfectly-sized evergreen that provides year-round privacy and enhances any landscape.

This is a popular alternative to the larger Thuja Green Giant- growing up to just 10-15 feet tall-  making it the perfect solution for smaller yards or tighter areas.

  • Perfect Size: Reaching a manageable height of 10-15 feet and a width of 3-4 feet, it fits into all landscapes, offering full privacy without overpowering your space.
  • Vibrant Year-Round Color: Get rich green foliage all year long, even during the coldest months. This tree holds its color beautifully, creating a lush, vibrant backdrop to your yard.
  • Low Maintenance: It is drought-tolerant and virtually care-free. It resists most pests and diseases, too.
  • Cold Hardy: The Emerald Green Arborvitae thrives in growing zones 3-8, enduring even the coldest winters without browning or damage.

Not All Emerald Green Arborvitaes are the Same

Make sure you know what you're getting. Some other online nurseries sell "bare root" evergreens. That means there is not pot or soil to protect your tree's roots! This is risky, and often these types of trees don't survive the planting process.

Nationwide Plants only offers potted, well-rooted Emerald Green Arborvitae trees. This is very important for these types of evergreens- they're often a year or two older than the ones you can find at other places. This means that once they are planted in your yard, they are ready to take off with explosive growth the first year.

Be Careful when Comparing Heights

Most online nurseries measure a tree's height by including the pot and roots in their measurement. This means that an actual "5-6 ft. tree" might only be three feet tall once it is planted!

Nationwide Plants measures its trees above the ground. Rest assured that when you purchase a "5-6 ft. tree" from us, it'll actually be that tall when you plant it.

This is extremely important when purchasing privacy evergreens, because you need instant privacy now! Purchasing from other sites might cost you two or three years of privacy.

Ideal for Privacy, Even in Tight Spaces

The Emerald Green Arborvitae is well-known for its dense, compact foliage, making it one of the best options for creating a natural privacy screen, windbreak, or sound barrier. Whether planted in rows or as a specimen tree, it offers beauty and seclusion.

  • Perfect for Small Spaces: With its narrow profile, this tree is ideal for planting along property lines, around patios, or next to structures like fences and driveways. You can create a full privacy hedge without taking up too much space.
  • Dense Foliage: The thick, feathery green foliage provides a solid visual screen, offering privacy from neighbors, reducing noise, and even blocking wind—all while maintaining an attractive appearance.

Planting and Care Made Easy

At Nationwide Trees, LLC, we believe in making landscaping simple and rewarding. The Emerald Green Arborvitae is easy to plant and requires very little care to thrive.

  • Planting Instructions: For a privacy hedge, plant your Emerald Greens about 3 feet apart. If you're planting near structures like fences or buildings, be sure to leave 4 feet of space for proper air circulation and easy maintenance.
  • Soil and Watering: This tree adapts well to various soil types, as long as they’re well-draining. Water regularly for the first few months, then let nature take over—once established, it only needs occasional watering, even in dry spells.
  • Sunlight: The Emerald Green prefers full sun (6-8 hours per day), but can tolerate partial shade, especially in warmer climates.

Low Maintenance, High Reward

One of the reasons homeowners love the Emerald Green Arborvitae is that it requires minimal maintenance.

  • Minimal Pruning: Unlike many other privacy trees, the Emerald Green doesn’t require regular pruning. However, if you prefer a neatly trimmed hedge, you can lightly prune once a year to maintain your desired height and shape.
  • Drought and Cold Tolerance: After the first year, this tree becomes highly drought-tolerant and thrives in both hot and cold climates, meaning less watering and no special winter care.
  • Resistant to Pests and Disease: You won’t have to worry about common tree problems like pests or diseases, as the Emerald Green Arborvitae is naturally resilient.

Versatile Planting Options

Whether you're lining your property or adding a decorative touch to your garden, the Emerald Green Arborvitae fits perfectly into any landscape design. Its versatility and adaptability make it a favorite among homeowners and landscapers alike.

  • Straight Row for Privacy: Plant 3 feet apart in a straight line to create a dense, green privacy fence. This method is perfect for those looking to quickly create a secluded backyard or block out street noise.
  • Staggered Rows for Full Coverage: For even more privacy and depth, stagger two rows of Emerald Greens. This method provides thicker coverage while using fewer trees.

History of the Emerald Green Arborvitae

Thuja occidentalis ‘Smaragd’ was discovered in Denmark in the 1950s. The cultivar name ‘Smaragd’ comes from the Danish word for "emerald," referring to its rich green foliage.

The plant was introduced by D.T. Poulsen Nursery, a well-known Danish horticultural firm. It is believed to have originated as a chance seedling or a naturally occurring mutation of Thuja occidentalis.

Since its introduction, ‘Smaragd’ (commonly known as Emerald Green Arborvitae) has become one of the most widely planted arborvitae cultivars due to its compact, pyramidal growth habit and year-round vibrant green color.

Sturdy ball, holding up well.
Color: Purple
I have a ball obsessed Shih Tzu. This has become his security blanket. He literally takes it everywhere and even sleeps with it next to him. Dexter loves any ball. All shapes and sizes. He will play fetch all day long if you let him. He doesn't know when to quit. It can be 100 degrees out with 80% humidity and he'll fetch all day long. This is a larger ball, I think just over 3 inches. It is entirely too big for a Shih Tzu, but it is perfect for Dexter. He came to us with a ball similar to this that he has since lost. He carries it in his mouth by placing his incisors in the indentations and lets it hang out the side of his mouth. Quite comical actually, but it works for him. We have bought him balls more for his size, but they're too small and he gets them lost under cabinets, furniture or any nook and cranny the ball will fit. And being obsessive, he will bark and carry on because he can't get to the ball until you come and rescue it. Difficult on our old knees. So he ends up getting the smaller balls taken away from him. The other night he was laying and chewing on this ball. It sounded like he was shredding this ball to pieces. I was afraid he would choke or swallow the rubber pieces, so I took it away from him. There wasn't anything wrong with the ball. It looked brand new. No chew or bite marks that I could see. I was impressed. It does have a squeaker, but I can barely get it to squeak and I have strong hands. A larger dog with a stronger bite force could probably easily make it squeak. It claims to have a beef scent to the toy, and maybe that is why he likes the ball so much. But I sniffed it and couldn't smell anything, which is fine by me, it won't have an obnoxious smell to where I don't want it around me.

Dogs love balls
Color: Orange
Most dogs love to play with balls. This is a ball. It squeaks and can handle a lot of strong chewing. Quite durable and a good size for medium and up sized dogs. (Honestly even smaller dogs would have fun with this).

Heavy duty for sure
Color: Purple
Heavy duty toy. This ball has some weight to it! I have a smaller laber doodle that thinks she's a German Shepard so no toy is too big or heavy for her. She's been chewing on this for months but you'd never know it. The squeaker is even hard for me to activate with my hands. She hits it in the right spot every now and again and gets excited about it. Great if your not crazy about hearing a squeaker squeaking non stop!

All dog sizes can enjoy this ball!
Color: Orange
This is a terrific dog ball! Our Pittie can't tear it apart on day 2 which is unusual! Also, its big enough that he can't swallow it but not so huge that our mini Doodle can't enjoy it too! We have more than one of these to keep our pups busy!
