The rapid growth Evergreen Perfect-screen
This week we are featuring an evergreen that is not only growing fast, beautiful and low maintenance, but offers the perfect privacy screen – 'Thuja steeplechase.' Barriers' is a branch of arborvitae Sport popular "Green Giant". It was discovered in the summer of 1990 in Maryland. Privacy Hedging Top This "Green Giant" was considered the ideal growth faster, higher exposure to the problems of Leyland Cypress, but "obstacles" is even better than the 'green giant'. In fact, the best is better than ever.

'Barriers' has a pyramidal shape, with a rich and aromatic foliage green. The foliage is dark green and has a texture very thin which makes it even clearer and denser than 'Green Giant'. Once established, 'Steeplechase' grows at a rate of about 2 meters per year. Fourteen trees are approximately 25 feet high and only 10 feet wide at the base.

'Barriers' does not require any cutting, but can be cut to a smaller size. Thuja Green 'giant', and therefore Thuja 'Barriers', is believed to be a hybrid of cedar and western red cedar in Japan. They should not be confused with the much slower growth arborvitaes is common American. Because "obstacles" is so new, the final size is not known, but I suspect about 35 feet high and 12 feet wide, so that "obstacles" is not much of your yard. And unlike 'Green Giant' that keeps a tight shape and will not stretch and open. 'Barriers' is extremely resistant to snow, ice and the wind.
