Product Description
One of the Fastest Growing Privacy Screens
Why American Pillar Arborvitaes?
The American Pillar is one of our most popular varieties due to its fast, full growth. After the first year, this tree grows more than 3 feet every year until it reaches its mature height. Plus, since it's extremely narrow, it’s an ideal screen for even tighter spaces.
And there's simply no better option for a privacy screen because it's cheaper than a traditional fence. The American Pillar’s dense growth habit and manageable width make it perfect for borders, street hedging and beyond. Since it can grow up to 30 feet, it's even well-suited as a buffer for second-story balconies and decks. Even better? It’s resistant to extreme heat, cold, wind, and ice, so it's super strong. A little watering and it's good to grow!

United StatesI love am in love with this tree and now own ~25 and counting. Makes for a great tree line that doesn't consume significant width spacing. Trees have always arrived in great condition and have only replaced 2 thus far.
United StatesGreat experience. Delivery as planned. Trees planted and doing well!
United StatesThey came boxed and in perfect condition. Great service, 2 thumbs up.
United StatesThe American pillar arborvitae arrived beautifully packaged soil still moist all of the trees look great I planted them according to instruction and they're already growing after just a week in the ground.
United StatesI was pleasantly surprised and extremely pleased when I received my 10-pack of American Pillar Arborvitae trees. They were very well packaged, easy to prepare for planting, and most importantly, excellent quality plants with robust root systems. They were also on the top end of the size range which was promised. I was able to unpackage and plant them right away, and only about a week and a half later, they are growing really well with lots of new growth, without having to have done a lot of initial planting preparation. It was pretty much unpack, plant, and grow! I will definitely order again from Fast Growing Trees, and have already recommended your site to friends and family.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: The American Pillar Arborvitae can be planted in any soil or air condition, but it needs to be placed in a spot that receives full sun (6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day). Plant in a hole twice as wide, but just as deep as the root ball. There is no need to amend the soil. Water thoroughly after planting to establish roots.
2. Watering: This tree can tolerate wet or dry conditions. Be sure to water the tree weekly in its young life to ensure proper growth. Try to maintain even moisture for the first year.
3. Pruning: This tree does not require any pruning, fertilizing or pest or disease management. If you want to reduce the size, you can prune off the top once it reaches over 10 feet. This will stunt the growth and allow you to customize your screen size.
