- Grows up to 3-4 ft. per year!
- Drought tolerant
- Feathery soft texture
Leylands are the most popular privacy tree in the U.S.A. They grow very fast and thicken to create a solid wall.
Its feathery texture is soft to the touch. Stays green all year-round, giving you complete privacy.
Leyland Cypress trees shipped from our nursery will:
- Have established root systems that quickly adapt to your soil and climate
- Mature to a majestic pyramidal form
- Thrive in Growing Zones 6-10
- Demonstrate tolerance to drought
Grows rapidly – up to 3-4 ft. per year! Easily pruned to your desired height and shape.
Even without trimming, your Leyland Cypress trees will grow in a uniform, symmetrical shape that gives you a dense, living wall.
Fast growers, adaptable to a variety of soils and conditions, even sandy and clay.
Space your Leylands 6 ft. apart for a privacy hedge or further apart for a spacious property border.
Your trees arrive in their own containers with all their roots intact. We don't send Leylands out bare-root like many nurseries and landscapers, because this process pulls the tree out of the ground, leaving critical fine roots. It can take a Leyland up to a year to recover, stunting its growth and making it more susceptable to disease and insects.
When you order from Fast Growing Trees, your Leylands arrive with well developed root systems that properly fill their containers. You don't get a small plant that was bumped up to a bigger pot just so the nursery could charge more.
You get hardy, vibrant Leylands that will give you the fastest growth possible. And for quickest privacy… you can still order from our limited supply of 4-6 ft. tall Leyland Cypress trees.
*4-6 ft. Measured size includes root system

I never would have thought to find my trees online, but after the poor service I got at my local nursery I found Fast Growing Trees Nursery, which gave me all the information I needed to get a privacy hedge going. The Leyland Cypress trees I ordered arrived to me in California in great shape and now they are in their happy home. I'll be buying some more plants from this company as spring approaches.

My wife and i ordered 11 leyland cypress trees for privacy in our back yard . when they arrived they were packaged carefully and looked very healthy. we planted within 2 days and now one year later they have doubled in size and 3 of them are now 6 feet tall, not bad when you consider they were 2.5 feet tall when they arrived.

We used our leylands as a privacy fence. They are doing great and growing fast as we were told. They have survived through our dry summer, and would not hestiate to buy more. Thank you!

I purchased 10 Leyland Cypress trees for a screen in my back yard. In a little over a year they have virtually covered the view of the house behind mine and are growing so fast that soon the utility wires that are run on the backs of the property line will not be visable by next year. They are very healthy looking and once established easy to maintain. I am very happy with my tree purchase and would use Fast Growing Trees Nursery again.

These leylands took quite a while to recover from the shock of planting. They have finally started producing new growth the last two months. They are hardy and have endured the heat and humidity of NW Florida.

We use our evergreens for privacy between our home and the neighbors. These leylands are very strong, they have grown two feet in very hard and dry soil. We have not encountered anything that isn't great about our evergreens. I love our California trees!

Our leylands look green and healthy in claylike soil. Many other types of plants have not done so well in our area due to changes in temp and due to our non-porous soil conditions but these trees seem to have survived and should continue to grow well.

Initially they turned brown and I thought that one or two of the three would not make it. But partway through the summer they turned green and then this fall have grown about a foot. They look good now and I expect will grow significantly going forward.

I purchased approximately 3 dozen leyland cypress trees over a year ago and have been pleased. They are serving as a fine wall barrier and border in my backyard. I have noticed an increase in size already which was one of the reasons for this species selection.

They seem to be doing quite well however haven't grown very much, I was hoping for more filling in and more height. We watered them during any dry spells and they get a fair amount of sun. The good news is that they appear pretty healthy.
