One of the Fastest Growing Privacy Screens
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!

Western property full speed a hedge border
This is 45 trees about 18-20” apart at time of initial planting and just shy of a year later. Four failed and were easily covered by the guarantee - excellent customer service. They got a rooting compound with their first couple waterings and were nursed through the summer and fall. Each survived the winter. The stunted area midway down gets nearly all-day sun and has the replacements; this same area is somewhat of a runoff area for mine and the neighbors’s yards and is last to dry after a heavy rain. The group at the back are nearly full shade and are growing well. The areas with optimum growth are part sun. (My neighbor is super cool and lets me step onto and through his property to tend to his side. )
Full speed a hedge plants
Ordered 24 1-2 foot trees to start a privacy fence and they were all shipped in great shape! They were not root bound in the pots which was great. They were all about 12-16 inches tall. They were all shipped together in a box and arrived the week I selected them to arrive which was nice too. I was hesitant to order plants online but I'm glad I took the chance because these were great! I would order more plants again from this company.
Great trees
Order came fast. And all trees came healthy .
Very nice tree!
Ordered my tree with easy online ordering. Great communication up to delivery. Only one tree was delivered so I contacted customer service and another one is on its way. Overall a great experience!
