I too plant 10 to provide privacy.

@@mrBDeye that's awesome! I might pull mine out for more mature ones and plant the little Arbs elsewhere 😆 I'm so impatient

@@ikillprettythingz7947 The price for 6 ft arborvitae at the local nursery is $139 each. Home Depot has them for $75 each. There are 3 HD's about 8 miles away. Only one has them.

@@mrBDeye They're pricy x10..I purchased mine for a total of $50 for 10. On sale 2 for $10 at Lowes but such babies, worth the wait probably 🤣

How much were yours. I got some 5 footers for $52 a piece at lowes ...

How much did they grow in a year?

@@astonike8383 half a foot I would say. Def an investment not for immediate results

Miracle gro? Maybe?

water them

Yeah, not enough water or air in and around the root ball when planted. They have to be watered in good when planting and watered everyday for a wile.

8 years.

no its too hot. Try skyrocket juniper

@@cooper8318 yeah but Texas has like four climates. So it depends where

Go to lowes

Home Depot or Lowe’s or Walmart or local nursery.

Lol. You must be doing something seriously wrong then...

You need to inspect each one of them very well before you purchase and plant. lt can be difficult to notice foliage that has started to dry out already because they don't loose their green color at first so the dried out foliage may just look a bit darker green color but that is also a tell tale sign that that particular tree is not going to make it and is already dying. Having worked for years in retail garden centers l can tell you that most garden centers do not give these trees the care they need (if ANY at all) while they sit at the garden center waiting to be purchased and along with people not giving them the proper initial care once they take them home and plant them are the main two reasons that a tree which "seemed" to be ok when purchased dies just a few weeks after being planted. Over the years l've literally planted hundreds of these trees both at the places I've lived but also helping other people who were also planting for the privacy feature of them and l have never once had even one of them die. Always plant at the beginning of fall, not summer, and once spring comes around apply fertilizer and these things will explode with growth and thrive.

@@JA-rn5qv what kind of fertilizer do you recommend? I live in zone 4B if that helps

@@hunterhowden1899 Use evergreen fertilizer, apply after the last frost at the beginning of spring.

The soil went wrong. Add rich well drain soil and you should be good.

LOL...I just heard someone say the exact same thing about the Green Giants and Spring Groves.
