For most lush growth, plant in moist but well-drained soil, though it will survive drought periods with no problem. Mulch each year with bark or compost to protect its rather shallow root system and conserve water. Boxwood takes pruning well, but wait until after danger of frost in the late spring before cutting. The plants will stay dense to the ground if you leave the bottoms a little wider than the tops, so sun can reach the lower branches.","brand":"BrighterBlooms.com","offers":[{"title":"1 Gallon","offer_id":13669301649469,"sku":"13201","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 Gallon","offer_id":13669301682237,"sku":"13202","price":96.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"3 Gallon","offer_id":13669301747773,"sku":"13203","price":70.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0062\/8532\/8445\/products\/American_Boxwood_BB_600x600_59652ab0-0a72-457f-a293-5943e74d4987.jpg?v=1607374991"},{"product_id":"endless-summer-hydrangea","title":"Endless Summer® The Original Reblooming Hydrangea","description":"\u003ch2\u003eEndless Summer\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e®\u003c\/span\u003e Hydrangea...

Apply a 3- to 4-inch layer of mulch to conserve moisture and keep the soil temperature cooler.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eHow to Plant\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e You'll receive healthy, well-rooted trees from our nursery. With a lifespan typically exceeding 50 years, the small investment of time to plant each Thuja Green Giant is worth a lifetime of enjoyment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhere to Plant\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Thuja Green Giant arborvitae trees grow in growing zones 5 through 9. Grows in partial shade or full sun. We recommend starting with taller trees in shady spots because they will catch more sunlight and grow faster. Although they're not fussy about soil type, and they prosper in moist soil, they don't like wet feet -- roots that remain in soggy or waterlogged soil. The planting site must drain well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePreparing the Site\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Remove any turfgrass and weeds before planting Thuja Green Giant trees. Clear debris, such as rocks and downed limbs or twigs, and loosen the soil by tilling or spading. It's better to add organic matter to an entire planting area, which encourages new roots to grow outward, instead of amending individual planting holes, which causes roots to stay comfortably within the confines of the hole. If the root system doesn't grow outward to anchor Thuja Green Giant, it can't support the growth rate and mature size of the tree. We recommend using our Organic Planting Mix to amend your soil to the ideal conditions. To naturally add the nutrients your Thujas need to really pack on the growth, we recommend also adding our Root Rocket Fertilizer when planting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePlanting Hole Depth and Width\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Planting trees too deeply is a common problem with serious consequences. Dig a hole only as deep as the height of the root ball in the container, but at least twice as wide (four to six times wider is preferable). The root ball should be placed in the planting hole so the level of the container soil is on grade with the soil around the hole. If you loosen the soil in the planting hole deeper than this, after you water your tree, the soil beneath it will settle, causing the tree to sink. Backfill the hole with the soil you removed, and \u003ci\u003every lightly \u003c\/i\u003etamp to firm the soil around the roots.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eMulching\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Apply a 2- to 3-inch layer of mulch around each tree, pulling it away from the base of the tree several inches from the trunk in all directions. Use pine needles, shredded bark, wood chips or bark nuggets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eStaking\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Unless you plant Thuja Green Giants on a windy site, or during a particularly windy time of year, you won't have to stake most small trees after planting. But if you do need to stabilize young trees, tie them loosely with a soft and flexible material to single stakes that are driven into the ground outside the root zone of the trees.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWatering\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Immediately after planting your Thuja Green Giant, water it slowly and thoroughly to allow the soil to settle and to eliminate large air pockets. Continue to water it every few days for the first few weeks if it doesn't rain, thoroughly moistening the root ball. Water them deeply every 7 to 10 days during dry weather.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eFertilizer\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDuring the growing season feed your Thuja ‘Green Giant’ with a balance evergreen tree and shrub fertilizer. \u003c\/span\u003eTo really kickstart your tree's growth, also add a pack of Root Rocket to your digging site.

This hybrid tree was planted at the U.S. National Arboretum, where it was observed to have exceptional landscape merits. Horticulturists propagated it and taxonomists appropriately named this cultivar 'Green Giant.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eTrivia\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • As a member of the Cypress plant family (Cupressaceae), Thuja Green Giant shares characteristics with other plant family relatives, such as flattened branches and evergreen, scale-like leaves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • Thuja Green Giant's parentage includes an arborvitae tree, which is a plant family relative of a North American native arborvitae. In the 1500s, French explorers took one of these native trees to Paris -- the first North American tree to be introduced in Europe. After a tea from the bark and leaves prevented scurvy on sea voyages, the tree was named arborvitae, which means 'tree of life' in Latin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • Clemson Cooperative Extension includes Thuja Green Giant on its list of 'Trees of Strength.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"BrighterBlooms.com","offers":[{"title":"1-2 ft.","offer_id":14172426502205,"sku":"10082","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2-3 ft.","offer_id":13669363482685,"sku":"10083","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3-4 ft.","offer_id":13669363515453,"sku":"10084","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4-5 ft.","offer_id":13669363548221,"sku":"10109","price":156.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5-6 ft.","offer_id":13669363580989,"sku":"10085","price":206.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6-7 ft.","offer_id":13669363679293,"sku":"11391","price":239.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0062\/8532\/8445\/products\/Thuja_Green_Giant_Tree_BB_600x600_33b35905-5595-4f3f-b409-78a208c28571.jpg?v=1571152327"},{"product_id":"nellie-stevens-holly-tree","title":"Nellie Stevens Holly Tree","description":"\u003ch2\u003eRegain Privacy with Dense Holly Trees\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nellie Stevens Holly is a dense privacy evergreen that's adaptable, dense, and fast growing!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • quickly grows up to 3 ft per year\u003cbr\u003e • perfect for privacy hedges and wind screens\u003cbr\u003e • doesn't need maintenance... thrives on neglect\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Most Popular Holly for Privacy\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Quickly growing in popularity among landscape designers because they are so easy to maintain... just plant them and watch them grow into a dense green wall!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This holly's impenetrable leaves make it a natural privacy hedge and easily blocks out neighbors and noise.

This plant's robust nature gives it the ability to reach a height of up to 10 feet each year. As it grows, Black Bamboo forms a natural privacy fence -- almost as fast as you can construct a wooden privacy fence in your yard! And even if your HOA by-laws place a restriction on the height of constructed fences, you'll be able to bypass this restriction and have a taller-than-allowed green fence by planting Black Bamboo. As an evergreen plant, which retains its leaves year-round, Black Bamboo continues to breathe life into stark winter landscapes even after deciduous plants drop their leaves. You'll notice Black Bamboo will shed some of its foliage, particularly in springtime, but this is a natural part of the growing process as new leaves develop to replace the older ones. You can rake and remove the dropped foliage or leave it on the ground around your Black Bamboo plants as mulch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eUnique, Dark Canes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Height, color and texture collide in a stunning threefold combination:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Its sheer height alone gives Black Bamboo a dramatic stand-up-and-take-notice appearance among the other plants in your yard and garden.

If you grow Black Bamboo, you can harvest some of the canes to make these simple structures for your own Asian garden. Or you can simply grow a stand of Black Bamboo as a backdrop for your garden, forming a garden wall that features smaller plants or structures in front of it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eStriking Container Plant\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e You can grow Black Bamboo as a container plant for your deck, patio or poolside. And you can even enjoy Black Bamboo as a houseplant in your sunroom or in front of a sunny window. Although the pot will help restrict its height, you may have to keep the top pruned to keep it from brushing the ceiling. Because it spreads by runners (underground stems called rhizomes), use a large pot to give it room to grow. You'll want to re-pot your container plant every few years to keep the growth from cracking the pot.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eFor Vegetable and Flower Gardeners\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If you grow vegetables, you can make simple bamboo 'trellises' for your climbing crops, such as beans, squash, and cucumbers. Cut five Black Bamboo canes and tie them together at the top, leaving the bottom ends free. Press the loose ends firmly into the soil at equal distances from each other, and sow seeds at the base of these legs. For tomatoes, you can make simple four-sided tomato cages out of Black Bamboo canes to support their growth. And if you have tall flowering plants that need support, such as dahlias, peonies, and gladioli, Black Bamboo canes make plant stakes that are as beautiful as functional. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eNote: \u003c\/i\u003eYou may need to tie your climbing crops or flowering plants to the bamboo canes or weave the stems through the openings as the plants grow. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eHardiness Range\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Black Bamboo is a perennial in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 7 through 10, where its mature canes can reach 30 feet tall. If you live in Zone 6, you may still be able to grow Black Bamboo, although the canes can be damaged or killed during winter. A heavy mulch cover helps insulate the roots, from which new growth may emerge in spring. In Zone 6, where cold winters may kill the top growth of Black Bamboo, your plants may only grow to 15 feet tall each season.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eControlling Vigorous Growth\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Black Bamboo will spread, but you can keep its growth in check if you're diligent. The 'spring shooting season' describes the yearly occurrence of the new shoots sprouting from the ground. Most of Black Bamboo's new growth -- nearly 90 percent -- occurs during the spring shooting season, so this is the prime time to control its spread. The new shoots are softer than the hardened, mature canes, so it's easy to cut, mow or kick them down where you do not want the spread of new growth. You can also install barriers, which you press into the ground, but you must install them properly (and deeply enough) to contain Black Bamboo's growth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSun and Soil Preferences\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Although Black Bamboo grows in partial sun, it prospers in \u003cb\u003efull sun\u003c\/b\u003e.

This will focus all of the nutrients into that one growth and become a very straight, beautiful tree.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BrighterBlooms.com","offers":[{"title":"1-2 ft.","offer_id":43162780074158,"sku":"14279","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2-3 ft.","offer_id":43162780106926,"sku":"14280","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"3-4 ft.","offer_id":43162780139694,"sku":"14281","price":96.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4-5 ft.","offer_id":43162780172462,"sku":"14282","price":124.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5-6 ft.","offer_id":43170547531950,"sku":"15852","price":165.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0062\/8532\/8445\/products\/Nordmax21_600x600_20839098-45b6-4170-9d06-193e0925a499.jpg?v=1658949094"},{"product_id":"phoenix-one-royal-empress-tree","title":"Phoenix One® Royal Empress Tree","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Fastest Growing Tree in the World - Now Even Better\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt's called the fastest growing tree in the world for good reason,\u003c\/strong\u003e growing up to 15 feet in a single year.

Full sun and well-draining soil are essential to the health of the tree. Ensure you plant your Empress well away from foundations, sidewalks and other structures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant your tree after the last frost, or when surrounding plants begin to bud out. For best results, mix in potting soil or soil conditioner, especially if planting in clay or poor soil. Make your hole twice as wide and just as deep as the root ball, place the tree in the hole, and spread the roots out evenly. Water the area to moisten\/settle the soil and then broadcast a good layer of mulch to preserve soil moisture and keep weeds and grasses back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. Watering:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWhen the top 2 to 3 inches of the soil is dry, add water. As a rule, let the soil surrounding the tree dry out before watering.

Check to make sure the first of the three numbers on your organic fertilizer is higher than the others, indicating an extra boost of nitrogen (example: 20-10-10). You can fertilize twice a month in the growing season, and stop fertilizing before the tree goes back into dormancy. Additional fertilizing should only be done after the first year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4.
