  • Blue Atlas Cedar 6-7′

    $279.99

    Blue Atlas Cedar Care

    Sunlight: Plant the Blue Atlas Cedar in a location that receives full sun to partial shade. It thrives in areas with ample sunlight but can tolerate some shade.

    Soil: Ensure the soil is well-drained and slightly acidic to neutral. Avoid waterlogged or compacted soil, as it can lead to root rot. Incorporate organic matter into the soil before planting to improve drainage and fertility.

    Watering: Water newly planted Blue Atlas Cedars regularly to establish a deep root system. Once established, water during dry periods, ensuring the soil remains evenly moist but not waterlogged. Deep watering less frequently is preferable to frequent shallow watering.

    Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base of the tree to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and insulate the roots. Maintain a mulch layer of 2-3 inches, but avoid piling mulch against the trunk to prevent rot.

    Fertilization: Blue Atlas Cedars generally do not require fertilization if planted in fertile soil. However, you can apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring if growth appears stunted or foliage color fades. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application rates.

    Pruning: Minimal pruning is typically required for Blue Atlas Cedars. Remove any dead, damaged, or diseased branches as needed. Shape the tree lightly if desired in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges.

    Protection: Protect young Blue Atlas Cedars from harsh winter winds and sunscald by wrapping the trunk with burlap or using a commercial tree wrap. Provide shelter from strong winds if possible to prevent damage to the branches.

    Pest and Disease Control: Monitor for pests such as spider mites, aphids, and scale insects. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or horticultural oil. Blue Atlas Cedars are generally resistant to most diseases but watch for signs of fungal issues such as needle blight and treat as necessary with appropriate fungicides.

    Green Giant Arborvitae Care

    Planting: Choose a location with well-drained soil and full to partial sunlight. Green Giant Arborvitae can tolerate a variety of soil types but prefer slightly acidic, moist soil. Plant them with enough space between each tree to accommodate their mature size.

    Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the tree’s establishment period and dry spells. Water deeply and infrequently, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.

    Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base of the trees, extending out to the drip line. Mulch helps retain soil moisture, regulate temperature, and suppress weeds. Keep the mulch a few inches away from the trunks to prevent rot.

    Fertilizing: Green Giant Arborvitae generally don’t require heavy fertilization. However, you can apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring to provide nutrients. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application rates.

    Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed for Green Giant Arborvitae. Remove any dead, damaged, or diseased branches as needed. Prune to maintain the desired shape and size, but avoid heavy pruning, as it may affect the tree’s natural form.

    Protection: Protect young trees from harsh weather conditions, strong winds, and extreme temperatures. Consider using tree wraps or shelters to shield them during winter.

    Pest and Disease Control: Monitor for common pests like spider mites, bagworms, and aphids, as well as diseases like canker and root rot. Treat infestations promptly with appropriate insecticides or fungicides.

    Winter Care: Green Giant Arborvitae are generally hardy, but providing some winter protection, such as wrapping the trees with burlap or applying anti-desiccant sprays, can help prevent winter damage.
