Privacy For Smaller Spaces

If you adore the features of Thuja Green Giant but lack the space, then the Gentle Giant is the ideal tree for you. Whether you desire a living privacy screen, a vertical accent, or an elegant border, this arborvitae is suitable for various garden styles. Its compact size makes it perfect for small areas.

Possibly the smallest member of the Thuja plicata group, 'Can-Can' can serve as a smaller alternative to 'Green Giant' in landscaping. It reaches heights of only 12-15' tall x 4-5' wide. This evergreen offers greater versatility in home landscapes.

This is the sole true semi-dwarf thuja tree that possesses most of the features that made Thuja Green Giant so popular. This Gentle Giant is the only tree we have discovered that resembles Thuja Green Giant and grows 2 to 3 feet annually. We take great pride in packaging these trees and delivering them to our customers!

This Gentle Giant has all the features that has made Thuja Green Giant so popular without taking up so much yard space. In the garden, used as a screen, or hedge the Gentle Giant also provides a more deer resistant choice than the eastern green arborvitae. All of these features come together to make this the tree to plant in your garden or landscape.

This arborvitae has superior branching structure that sheds snow loads rather than being broken like some other evergreens. Gentle Giant has attractive cream colored branch tips that contrast well with its existing dark green foliage. What’s more, deer do not favor the flavor of this type of arborvitae!
