Privacy trees have become the fastest‑growing trend in Georgia landscaping — and for good reason. Homeowners want real privacy, real beauty, and real value, not a fence that fades, leans, or needs replacing every few years. Trees solve problems that fences simply can’t.
This blog explains why privacy trees are taking over Georgia, why Thuja Green Giants lead the pack, and how proper planting transforms a property for decades.
Privacy trees offer benefits that last a lifetime:
They grow taller than any fence
They stay green year‑round
They block noise and wind
They increase property value
They look natural and beautiful
A fence gives you 6 feet of privacy.
A Thuja Green Giant gives you 30–50 feet.
That’s why homeowners across Georgia are switching to trees.
Thuja Green Giants are the backbone of privacy landscaping in Georgia. They grow fast, stay green, and handle Georgia heat better than almost any other evergreen.
Growth rate: 3–4 feet per year
Mature height: 30–40 feet
Evergreen: Yes — stays green all year, providing year round privacy fencing or noise barrier.
Heat tolerance: Excellent
Maintenance: Very low
Thuja Green Giants create a solid privacy wall in just a few years, making them the most popular tree we grow and install.
Spacing is one of the most important parts of creating a clean, solid privacy screen.
Thuja Green Giants: 5-8 feet apart
American Pillar: 3 feet apart
Leyland Cypress: 8–10 feet apart
Emerald Green Arborvitae: 3-4 feet apart
Correct spacing ensures:
No gaps
No crowding
Even growth
A perfect privacy wall
We measure every line carefully before planting.
Watering is the #1 factor in the first year of growth.
First 2 weeks: Every day
Weeks 3–8: Every other day
After 2 months: Twice per week
Use a slow, deep soak — not a fast spray.
Deep watering helps roots grow downward, which makes the tree stronger and more drought‑resistant.
We make the entire process simple and stress‑free:
We deliver your trees directly to your property.
We dig the holes to the correct depth.
