Why Full Speed A Hedge® American Pillar Arborvitaes?
The Full Speed A Hedge® 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 Full Speed A Hedge® 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!
What is a Jumbo Full Speed A Hedge® American Pillar Arborvitae Tree?
Jumbo trees are the most mature plants offered at Fast Growing Trees. Thanks to their well-developed root systems and large container size of 10-15 gallons, they deliver superior drought resistance, enhanced mineral absorption, and fuller growth. They're the perfect choice for instant privacy and a more established look in your landscape.
Grown in limited quantities, Jumbos are a premium option for those looking to make an immediate impact in their yard.

American pillar 1 tall healthy plants
My American pillar arbs are doing fine so far! They arrived in great shape. Nice healthy little plants. Looking forward to next year when they grow!
Great shape
This is my first time ordering trees online and I was very skeptical. I ordered 25 of these trees and expected there to be a couple bad ones or not in great shape but every single tree was healthy. Had a great root ball and is doing well on the ground. .
Beautiful trees!
The arborvitae are beautiful. They're going to provide privacy and look lovely. This is a much nicer alternative to a wooden fence.
Nice Tree
Arrived in good condition and we planted the next day, hopefully they grow and survive the 1st year.
Actually impressed
First time ordering plants online. This was the first site I saw then a few others popped up but this website had the best layout and easiest to browse around. Purchased 31x American Pillars at 1-2 feet then planted them 2. 5' on center and 2. 5' from the fence like the fullspeedahedge site suggests. I would order from here again.
