Creates year-round screening for yards, pools, patios, roads, and neighboring views.
SERVICE OVERVIEW
What's covered
Year-round privacy screening — arborvitae rows, Green Giant and Emerald Green, and mixed evergreen screens — planned around the actual site instead of a generic layout.
Can soften property lines, reduce exposure, and make outdoor areas feel more finished.
Works for single property lines, long rows, HOA buffers, and larger screening projects.
Allows species and spacing to be planned around the site instead of using one generic layout.
PROCESS
How the planting work is planned
Privacy goal and row length
We review what needs to be screened, how quickly coverage is desired, and how much space the mature trees will have.
Species and spacing
Green Giant, Emerald Green, other evergreens, or mixed screens may fit depending on sun, drainage, width, deer pressure, and maintenance expectations.
Installation and finish
Planting includes layout, depth, backfill, mulch, cleanup, and spacing that matches the selected material.
Watering expectations
Evergreen rows need consistent aftercare, especially in heat, dry weather, windy exposures, or near fences.
PROJECT DETAILS
What matters before planting day
Evergreens are useful beyond privacy
Evergreens are often planted for privacy, but they also frame driveways, soften fence lines, block road views, add winter color and structure, screen utilities, and make a large property feel finished. Because we grow and source many of our own evergreens, we can compare size, spacing, species, and availability before planting.
Evergreen varieties
Arborvitae can be a strong choice, but the best plant depends on space, mature size, drainage, sun, and deer pressure.
Privacy rows need a real plan
A privacy row should be planned around the property, not copied from a generic spacing chart. We look at the height needed, row length, fence offset, mature width, sunlight, drainage, deer pressure, mowing access, and how quickly the customer wants coverage.

SCOPE DECISIONS
What to settle before the estimate
Screening goal
Privacy planting should start with what needs to be blocked, the height needed, how quickly coverage matters, and whether a single row or layered screen fits the space.
Row layout
Fence offset, mature width, utility locations, gates, corners, slopes, and mowing access can all change spacing and tree count before the row is installed.
Long-term care
Evergreens need realistic watering, mulch, deer-pressure planning, and inspection during establishment so the row does not fail after planting day.
FAQ
Common Questions
What are the best evergreen trees for privacy in Kentucky?
In Kentucky, Green Giant arborvitae, Emerald Green arborvitae, and other evergreens can all work. The best choice depends on space, sun, soil, drainage, deer pressure, mature height, and how quickly the screen needs to fill in.
Do you plant Green Giant arborvitae?
Yes. Green Giant arborvitae is a popular fast-growing privacy evergreen, and we plant it when the space and conditions fit its mature size.
Do you plant Emerald Green arborvitae?
Yes. Emerald Green arborvitae stays narrower than Green Giant, which makes it a good fit for tighter spaces and shorter screening needs.
How far apart should privacy trees be planted?
Spacing depends on species, starting size, mature width, and how fast you want coverage. We plan spacing around the property instead of using one universal number.
Can evergreens grow near a fence?
Yes, with a sensible offset. We plan the distance from the fence around the mature width of the trees so the row can fill in without crowding the fence or the neighbor's side.
Do privacy trees need full sun?
Most privacy evergreens do best in full to partial sun. Heavy shade can thin out the screen, so sun exposure is one of the things we check before recommending a species.
How often should arborvitae be watered after planting?
Newly planted arborvitae need consistent, deep watering during establishment, with extra attention in heat, drought, or wind. We provide a watering guide so the row gets a fair start.
Are your evergreens nursery-grown?
Yes. Many of our evergreens come from our own nursery stock, and we also source from trusted regional suppliers for specific sizes or larger quantities.
