- Robert Frost penned the phrase "good fences make good neighbors", and what could be a more beautiful fence than one made up of beautiful trees?! This past week we planted a privacy screen along the back edge of our property using Thuja Green Giants and Burkii Eastern Redcedars to ensure that we will continue to have privacy in our backyard. Join us as we walk you through the process of planting these low maintenance, fast growing, gorgeous trees.

Now all you need is a picture of the entire planting of all the trees from the back patio looking out that way!! I bet it looks great now & will getter & more beautiful each season! 🙂🙂
We will be sure to do that in one of the updates!
Laura and Aaron had a big tree they took out. It had such poor roots because that cage was still girdling it many years later.
Exactly what I was thinking.
The Carolina's are more humid and wetter than the high desert. Galvanized steel that's in direct contact with the ground only lasts about 5-10 years down south.
so am i understanding this correctly, she shouldn do that, correct?
It’s important for people to explain the difference in planting in different growing zones/ soil conditions. I also live in NC but I don’t have clay soil. My soil is just sand.This wouldn’t work for us either.

Thank you for showing us these beautiful Burkii trees! I had never heard of this variety and they are gorgeous! ❤️
They are new to us too, and we immediately fell in love with them!
You are so wise to put your screen up now !! Love the music you played this morning ❤️🌷🌹🌺💐
Hopefully we’ll never need it but it sure is pretty to look at already! And yes I love the music too; Christine picked the perfect music!
Wow you got some beautiful specimens there. It makes such a difference when you are able to start a project with good stock. Thanks for a great informative video Jenny.
Yes it does!
Would love to see the Burkii privacy screen now.
So I thought you weren’t suppose to leave the wire cage on? I’ve always been told by so many to take the wire cage off. You said it will decompose but if you see what happen to Laura’s spruce on Garden Answer it was huge and blew over in a storm because they didn’t remove the cage.
Great dig...I didn’t really realize that prep work would be like that...very simple and organized.
Those trees are beautiful! You explain things so well! You and Jerry are such a great couple love to watch you work together
Thank you❣️
Great video from the best nephew in the entire world
🧡💜🧡💜
I would enjoy watching those trees grow!
We are looking forward to it!
Jenny, you and Jerry make a great team! Love these instructional and informational videos.
Thank you❣️
Oh, how I love your fun and informative videos! Wow, the music was so charming! 💚 Linda
Thank you❣️
Love the blue tone of those trees!
Me too!!!
Those are beautiful. My concern here would be snow. I'm in zone 6 and I can just picture 9 inches of snow breaking those branches. Snow destroyed two of my Bradford Pears that were about 16 years old. Broke them completely down. We had an early snow and as you probably know, the Bradford's are our last tree to lose it's leaves. We went to bed that night and heard trees falling everywhere. Got up the next morning and it broke my trees along with quite a few in the woods. We live in a hollow and have woods at the front of the house and also the back. Broke my heart. Stay safe, stay well.
Bradford pears are notorious for having weak branches and breaking in wind & snow. I would suspect that these trees would handle the snow well since they are native trees throughout such a wide range of zones.
Another great video. The trees are so mighty and beautiful. Thanks for sharing.😁
So glad you enjoyed it!
Green and Clean forevermore is the best way 👌 to go ahead
Beautiful! Great teamwork! Love your music choice!
Thank you❣️
Love your soil color so beautiful
That will be beautiful!!
Thank you!
I'm getting ready to do the same between my neighbor and myself. I am all ears. Thank you
You’re welcome!
Hard work! Awesome results. 🌿🌵🥒🌾🌱🍃
Yes absolutely!
That will be gorgeous in a few years when the Green Giants have a few years growth.
Absolutely!
More wonderful content! We planted 4 Burkii ERC a few months ago, and I have two one gallon size growing in pots. These trees are tough, beautiful and soooo difficult to source. Thank you for increasing awareness regarding these trees and so many other plants etc. Your descriptions and visuals are both helpful and provide viewing enjoyment.
Couldn’t be more perfect
Jenny can we please get an update on how the privacy screen has grown over the last 3 years???
I had no idea not to put any in-ground potting soil in the holes. Also, I didn’t know to leave the cage and all with the tree. I have been using Biotone the last couple of years and it makes a huge difference. I have a few spaces that I will be planting some new trees in. I’ve done it wrong all these years by adding some soil to the hole but I always use the red clay to finish it off with and a good layer of mulch. Never heard of the Burkii cedar but I do love it. Will be looking for one of those next year. Cedar is native to me and they kinda pop up everywhere. Wish y’all were a little closer to me in Northeast TN. Would love to visit your nursery. Take care and stay safe in these crazy times. 🌲💕
So glad you found it helpful! We would love to have you come visit us in the Spring! We’ve had quite a few folks from TN come see us with the latest one being from the Nashville area ♥️
I absolutely love the cedar it is so beautiful, the color is amazing luv luv it 💖
Thank you so much 🤗
YES! I do love that burkii cedar. Love them all.
Sweet thing is doing a fantastic job! Lucky girl 😙💕👍👍 and wow the Birkey is huge!!!
Yes and yes ♥️♥️♥️
Love the color contrast.
Me too!
Nice video. Loved the music too
Glad you enjoyed it!
Gardening is real life. I was surprises that you leave the trees in the metal cages.
If we had taken the cages off then the entire root system could be really damaged, especially since the nursery that these are from has extremely sandy soil.
@@GardeningwithCreekside Thank you for clarifying that! I just did not realize how common it is to plant trees like this in the South... Here in Northern New England, the burlap is removed -- and the metal cages cut out due at least in part to concerns of root girdling (and facilitate root growth)..
Very interesting video. I never would have thought to do a double row of screening trees. That is such a good idea. And preventative screening is a good concept. My backyard is a goldfish bowl and I'm adding screening. I love my current neighbors on all sides, so I'm very lucky. But you never know what might happen in the future. Thanks!
I love the depth that a double row gives.
That is gorgeous what a great idea with the placement! If we ever get this house closing accomplished maybe we can get started. 😒 man this red clay is hard to get used to! Even this house has a bit of stain on the bottom foundation! Thanks for the share!
Ahhh yes. Red clay stains - everywhere!!!! 😩
Love planting videos Jenny...the blueish tone colour of those giants....👍🤗
Thanks so much 😊
Music on point! 👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing. Those trees are so beautiful. I wish they were hardy in zone 10 too. Many blessings. :)
Thank you! You too!
Relaxing video music.
Beautiful!!
Thank you❣️
Thanks for the introduction of these trees which I didn’t know existed. I need to also do some future planning as I think one day I will have to replace one of my 40 year old evergreens on my property which is the current privacy screen.
You’re so welcome!
Thank you for sharing the journey of trees from grower to the ground. Burkii are such beautiful trees! Sadly, we cannot plant them because they are junipers, and therefore can act as an intermediate host for cedar/apple rust which can wreak havoc on our apple trees...
Oh man! That stinks but I’m glad you enjoyed watching their journey 😊
I appreciate the Clemson hat.
I feel so confused. Aaron and Laura from Oregon lost a huge blue spruce because it had been planted in its cage…when do you remove the cage and when do you leave it? I think I’ll just cut the cage before I backfill. 🤷🏻♀️
Love your CZcams Channel. I'm from Franklin, TN and we also have the clay soil. This information is so helpful and I love these trees you discussed because they're not extremely tall for smaller yards. I'm going to see if I can find some Burkii's and Giants around here. Thanks so much for your video, Jenny. Always helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for beautiful music. I love it.
You’re so welcome 💕
I love your music!
Thanks!
To paraphrase "Crocodile Dundee", "That's not an auger...now that's an auger. 😁😷👍 6A
😂😂😂
Looks great.
Oh! ?how did I miss this?!
(Ah...family emergency.
T y, CZcams...glad I subscribed!)
So thorough...I appreciate the explanation and advice.
Noticing the spatial areas...I thought they would be flushed to the line...20’ is 20’ radius...I see the wisdom by keeping away from the line,
Some property owners flush-up the the line...
Neither of these trees are listed as toxic to horses. Great if you are looking for a privacy screen around paddocks. I just planted 17 green giant thujas together with some little gem magnolias along a property line on my horse property.
That’s fantastic!
Loved the video but metal does not decompose. Didn't you see Laura's spruce that fell over with the metal still intact?
The root ball of all of the trees was sand (that is the native soil of the nursery in SC). If we had removed the metal caging then they would have completely fallen apart, and considering the size of the trees when they were planted it would be impossible to remove all of the materials without completely sacrificing the root system (which is just slightly important).
Would have loved to see the full end result! Thanks for the video!
We will have an update on them in a coming video! (Probably the next patio video)
Gardening with Creekside That sounds amazing! Love your channel! Watching from Iceland ☺️
Looking awesome will look great in time think ahead you should under plant them with daffodils tulips and spring pansys until they mature it would be a great back drop for spring colour in the mulched beds also gives you pop of colour and the bulbs may naturalise underneath the trees if you forget about them great for early bees
Good idea!
Haha... it’s 2020! This is a very instructive video! I’m looking forward to being able to plant some privacy trees 🌲
Anything is possible in 2020 right?!
Awesome!
First time homeowners here in our 20s and we didn't have the funds to put in our privacy landscaping when we first moved in a couple of years ago. Beautiful woods and fields surrounded us then. Now, classic NC, all the land around us has been sold and developed and we've got neighbors and construction on all sides. Zero privacy! That was a smart decision to do it before you need it. These small rural towns don't stay that way here anymore. Local farmer I spoke to recently had this to say: "farmers 'round here don't grow crops no more. They're growin' subdivisions!" Sad to say, most of NC has lost it's charm in many places or is quickly getting too expensive for locals to live here. Enjoy your privacy screen and your acreage! It's more work, time and resources than people realize but the peace of mind it will bring for years to come is well worth it. Happy to have found a local gardener on youtube to follow!
Thank you❣️
Love these!
In the next day recap, what is that “huge” evergreen back to the lest behind you?
Those are cryptomeria which are a type of cypress
@@GardeningwithCreekside Thank you so much...they are HUGE!!!
Plan B to the rescue! Now that’s a serious auger. The trees all look great planted and mulched.👍
Yes! There is always a plan b (and sometimes c, d & e 😂)!
Beautiful trees, garden answer had a full grown spruce came down do to wind, main reason it came down was because the metal was left on the spruce not allowing the roots to spread. Should you be concern?
Beautiful trees and gardening! Burkii resembles blue moon juniper, very pretty! How far apart did you plant the green giants from burkii? Do you ship to NY? I live in zoon 6.
What is the massive green tree in the background 🤔? It is gorgeous!!! And so are the ones you planted!!!
Cryptomerias
great music Christine! some time can you play 'Tis a Gift to be Simple Tis a Gift to be Free'?
Great looking trees💚💚💚
Do you have trouble with deer trying to eat on the trees?
The deer in Michigan love all the trees we plant🤷♀️
Got smart this time.... put a snow fence around my new dogwood... 🤞 fingers crossed.
Always enjoy the videos❤️
Thanks for watching! We have never had an issue with deer eating our plants. I’m thinking it’s because we have so much “wild, native” land around us and they don’t want to eat our plants. Also they have predators here so that keeps their numbers down.
I didn't know you could leave the wire and burlap! Could have saved myself alot of time and effort when we planted ours.
13:10 swats bug 🤣🤣🤣
That poor bee didn’t stand a chance 😉
That’s going to be beautiful!!! I’m surprised the metal cage stays! Do the roots just grow through it? I think the video says it eventually breaks down, was that the burlap only?
Love this channel and appreciate Jenny's advice so much! However, I had the same thought about the metal caging! From my personal experience: I just recently removed some old shrubs (that were no longer thriving) from the landscaping around my 20-year-old home, and found that the metal caging was still in the ground under all the old root balls. So I pulled all the old rusty metal out, and replanted the whole area with fresh shrubs and trees, making sure to remove all the metal caging first. I just prefer to know that there isn't anything at all inhibiting the growth of the roots into the surrounding native soil, and I don't want to worry about old rusty metal in the ground later on. Just my hobby-gardener opinion. 🤷♀️🙂😊
That metal cage AND the burlap bag doesn't seem normal or natural to me.
Plantar jardim conifer e muito 👍🕊️
I’ve been going back and watching a lot of your older videos. Educating myself as I have clay soil also, not red clay, more grey clay, almost like potters use. Would the planting be the same regardless of the color of the clay soil? I’m thinking clay soil is clay soil. Also, I’m wondering about leaving the B and B on when planting. I see so many conflicting ideas on this. Most say this is not good to do. How do I know which is the right way? After seeing Laura from Garden Answers tree that fell over in the windstorm, and it having the B and B left on, they had determined that was part of the cause because the roots didn’t spread enough. You see so many different rules that it all can be confusing as to which is the right way.
My fav word is auger.
Hello is it ok to use 25 gallon ooze tube for slow drip watering for newly planted 3-4ft height thuja green giant trees? I just planted 13 today and due to the green giant pyramidal shape, its fit kinda snug from the bottom. My landscaper thinks this should be fine. But I wanted an expert opinion.
Very Nice! How do they look now?
Great job! Thanks for the details on how to place these trees. What size auger were you using?
What video should i check for an update on these?
Thanks for the info, hard to find info on planting mature thuja's. I'm thinking about putting in many of the same along my property. What kind of cost to replicate this am I looking at, minus equipment rental? If you don't mind.
Definitely remove the burlap or not?? How about the wire around the root ball?
👍🏼 Great job💪🏼 Are the green giants deer resistant? (Sorry if you said and I didn’t catch it) Curious about the variety of the big pine in the property line. Thank you
They are deer resistant 🙌🏻
I just realized that they are trees (the look is different from what I know as a tree)...my mind was registering them as bushes.
Interesting.
Do the green giants have a single leader? One thing I don’t love about arborvitae is the split top....
They do! They have always held up well to any kind of snow or ice we get, and the only times we’ve ever had limbs break was due to children climbing on them 😏
Will you go back to these to show what they look like 2 years out?
They will look great as they grow larger.
Thuja is always pronounced Thoo-ya. Burkii is burk-ee-eye.
Thank you
☹️ we have huge native Red Cedars along our line that are breaking now in wind storms and ice. We lost one last week and are in the process off removing them. How do the ones your planting handle wind and ice compared to native Red Cedars?
Impress me by showing how they look now, 2 years later
Hi! what kind of tree is behind you at the minute 16:06?Pinus wallichiana?
Those are cryptomeria which are a type of cypress. We planted them while we were building the house 17 years ago.
I was just wondering how much property you have and on queue you mentioned it.
Happy to help!
How old is the Cryptomeria behind you & are they fast growing? TY
They were planted 17 years ago, and they were a 3-gallon plant probably 3’ tall
Hi want to order 1 Jr green to see if it lives..in zone 9 long hot summers 95-100 dry..(pricey)...any thoughts? Small backyard... 🌝
If you lived in CT, with our rocky soil, would you amend it and plant deeper?
Amending the soil for your conditions certainly makes sense, but I would still be very careful not to plant the tree too deep. I would only go as low as ground level.
I certainly hope you're planning on taking that burlap off of that root ball that tree will not root and will not make it if you don't take that burlap off
Several years later and they are doing just fine 😊. The roots grow right through the burlap so it is not a problem.
Thank you for this video. I'm in middle TN and building a new house now. I love the cedars in that size. What does a tree that size cost on average? Also what is the labor cost per tree to drill and set them? Thank you.
That size tree is going to run you at least $400 by itself and then somewhere around $200 in labor per tree. Jerry says he's in no hurry to install one anytime soon! Those things about killed us, ha ha ha!
@@GardeningwithCreekside thanks for the reply. I figured they were expensive. I can only afford three or four of those. You can bet I'll be taking care of them like a newborn baby lol! Big investment!
you didn't cut the wiring and burlap? that cant be good for the tree. the root system will not grow and the tree may blow down with a strong wind.
How long do you think till they will be kissing each other really? Like 6 or 7 years I’m guessing. I believe in planting the right plants in the right place. I think you did that. Good job.
I think in 10 years it will almost be a mature hedge. That means the Green Giants will have grown an additional 20’ to be about 25’ so they will still be growing.
Jerry!
Didn’t catch which Growing Zone you are located in
7b in NC
How are you going to keep the deer off of these?
We have deer but they have never bothered any of our plants. I suppose it’s because they have so much natural/native plants around them that they don’t feel the need to eat our plants.
I think you should have taken the burlap out of there there's no reason to leave it in there
Many thieves have been raiding our garden this fall, and in the spring many thieves were raiding our mailbox, it's an epidemic. We've already started putting up a fence, and we got a good secure mailbox in the summer~
Ludzie dobrej woli sadzcie cedry...
I really enjoyed this video until you said to not takeoff the burlap or the wire cages. Now everyone that watches this video will think that’s the best way to go but it’s not. And you have a ton of followers. I have removed 20 year old trees from my yard still in the cage, contorted and the burlap was still there. You live in a pretty wet climate in the south and so yours might break down more than others who are in a drier climate. I think it just kind of makes sense that you would want to take away all barriers for the tree to thrive and that includes the rope the burlap which is sometimes doubled up when you fold it down and also the wire cage. I know this is kind of a highly debated topic but I do think there’s a lot of mis information out there about it just breaking down really easily when it doesn’t. I would talk to an arborist that has been doing trees for 20+ years and see what they say all the ones that I’ve talked to have said remove everything. I think if you’re going to spend $20,000 on trees and an auger that at the very end I would at least unwrap them and put them in the dirt to give them the best chance at success. I truly do you like your show this was just a little off putting for me because you have so many people who will take your words as truth. www2.ca.uky.edu/agcomm/pubs/ho/ho91/ho91.pdf
Thank you for your feedback. We don't claim to be experts in gardens that have different climates and growing conditions (ex dry climates), but we do know how to garden in the Piedmont of NC with red clay soil. These trees came from the low-country of SC that has basic pure sand as their native soil. If we had taken all of the material off of the trees then we would have had a big problem on our hands due to their size and the fact that their native soil would simply fallen away. We say for people to do their own research and to be students of their own garden because no two gardens are the same and you have to take responsibility & ownership of your own space. For our garden and our situation this was the best choice. And 18 months later the trees' current health supports this statement.
