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.

Take the skin off and get the right size for your dog’s weight!
Color: Panda Bear - Large, Color: Panda Bear - Large
This review is specifically for the panda toy. My dog is a super chewer and will literally go through any normal toy, even the ones labeled for aggressive chewers, within a few hours at most. He’s about to be 10 years old and this is the first time he’s ever had a toy that lasted as long as it has. I wanna mention the outer layer he almost immediately chewed through. To me, it wasn’t worth the fear of him dealing through pieces so I just took the whole “skin” off. However, he’s safely had this for 2 months with no issues and heavy daily chewing until he finally broke it apart. So if you have a super chewer, make sure to get the size appropriate for your dog’s weight and take the “skin” off and you’re left with a quality toy that will stick around! Pictured is a set of 2 new toys of the same variety since he finally chewed through his last batch lol

My dog loves this toy but…
Color: Grey Bear - Large
This toy has many pros and cons, but it’s my dogs all time favorite toy so I have to give it 4 stars. Pro:My German Shepard loves this toy, it has no squeaker and she hates squeakers, so she hasn’t tried to destroy it. It’s the perfect size for a large ball. She likes to throw her toys and this one has a pretty decent bounce to it so she can entertain herself. Cons: the inside is hard rubber, she likes to throw her toys and it hurts when she hits you with it or drops it on your feet. Also a huge hazard to windows and anything breakable.

Pretty awesome chew toy
Color: Grey Bear - Large
This toy is great!! I have a doodle that shreds everything in sight, including durable toys, but this one stood up to the Teddy test! He easily ripped off the ear/feet bits, but the fabric casing hasn’t come off after a week of play, and I expect the rubber toy inside will be even harder to break. This is a fairly heavy toy, so it makes a thunk when it drops and is probably not suitable for small dogs. It has a light squeak that is quiet and infrequent enough to not annoy me, and it’s pretty cute too!! it does get soaked in drool pretty fast (and takes forever to dry), but at this point i’m grateful it lasts long enough to get drooled on at all.

less than 24 hours :/
Color: Grey Bear - Large, Color: Grey Bear - Large
smaller than i expected but had a strong interior that i was pleasantly surprised with. my lil lady very much enjoyed it, however it lasted less than 24 hours before the poor toy was skinned alive :( she loves plushies and she’s obsessed w his skin after tearing him apart. it does have a solid rubber interior that is still good as a toy, however i was hoping its skin would stay on longer than a day :( overall decent toy, 3 stars for being destroyed so quickly. wouldn’t recommend for strong chewers
