Planting & Care
Planting: The Emerald Squeeze™ Arborvitae thrives in moist, well-drained soil and requires plenty of sunlight. Avoid overly acidic or alkaline conditions while it adapts to various soil types. When planting, space the shrubs about 3.5 to 4 feet apart to ensure good air circulation and light exposure. Over time, they will fill in the gaps, creating a lush hedge or screen. Regular watering and occasional fertilization will help maintain their health and appearance.
Watering: After planting, it is essential to water regularly for the first couple of years to help the plant establish. Once established, watering is typically only necessary during prolonged hot and dry weather. Maintain consistent moisture, but be careful not to overwater.
Fertilizing: Feeding this plant is not strictly necessary if grown in fertile soil. However, if desired, a slow-release, general shrub fertilizer can be applied in early spring.
Pruning: The Emerald Squeeze™ is a low-maintenance shrub that needs minimal pruning but can be lightly trimmed in late spring or early fall to keep it looking tidy.
