Has anyone grown a THUJA GREEN GIANT tree?
If you have, please tell me your experience.
Last fall I planted some small ones I had ordered from Arbor day. They will be part of my screening hedge. I do hope those tender young thing survived our recent cold snap. I planted a lot of trees last year and fear for their survival of the cold.
Grows quick and the foliage is scented a bit like oranges, but not everyone likes the smell so sniff one before you buy.
Good point but how close do you have to be to smell them?
@FrayedBear Think it must depend on your nose, I have a very bad nose and can not smell them until I get to within a few feet, but some people may smell them at a much greater distance, most people tell me that they are amazed by how poor my smell is. You can certainly smell them when clipping of course, and I find the dust extremely irritatiing even on the skin, but if you do not intend to clip that is not a problem.
@Fernapple Thanks for that insight. The books don't tell you!

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
