I bought 10 Thuja Green Giants from a nursery and have grown them in the garden for the past 5 years.
The were little plugs when I planted them.
I am moving house and want to sell them. They are at least 14ft tall now, some maybe even 18ft +
Please contact me if you want to see them snipped-for-privacy@gmail.com
Those horrid trees are a liability, NOT an asset... you'll be very lucky if some ignoranus putz takes them off your hands. Those things are actually worth a lot less now than the day you bought them. And no one is going to dig out an 18' tree that is worthless. Were it me I'd take a chain saw to those worthless horrors.... and they are not even worth the effort for firewood.
These are a variety of Thuja plicata (western red cedar). From northern California to Alaska and eastward to Montana and Alberta, they are a valuable timber tree.
Sunset's "Western Garden Book" describes T. plicata as "magnificent in large lawns", implying that these should be used as single specimen trees. Yet, Sunset also says of 'Green Giant': "Shear as a tall hedge or use as a tall screen."
Those are advertised as a fast growing tree, but they are more a weed, totally valueless as a landscape plant. No one is going to buy them, it will cost ten times more to move them than they are worth.
