Private Jet™ Arborvitae

Private Jet Arborvitae typically grows 15–20 feet tall and 4–5 feet wide at maturity. Its naturally narrow growth habit makes it an excellent choice for homeowners who want a tall privacy screen without sacrificing valuable yard space.

Private Jet Arborvitae is considered a fast-growing evergreen and typically grows approximately 2–3 feet per year under favorable growing conditions.

Private Jet Arborvitae grows best in full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil. It is ideal for property lines, fences, landscape borders, and anywhere a fast-growing evergreen privacy screen is desired.

For a dense privacy screen, plant Private Jet Arborvitaes approximately 3–4 feet apart from center to center. If you prefer to showcase each tree individually or allow more room between them, space them 4–5 feet apart.

Yes. With a mature width of only 4–5 feet, Private Jet Arborvitae is one of the best evergreen privacy trees for homeowners with limited planting space. Its fast growth and naturally narrow habit make it ideal for planting along fences, property lines, driveways, and side yards where a traditional privacy tree may become too wide.

Yes. Private Jet Arborvitae adapts well to many soil types, including clay, provided the soil drains reasonably well. Avoid areas where water remains standing for extended periods.

Yes. Private Jet Arborvitae responds well to light pruning and can be maintained at a shorter height if desired. Light annual pruning helps preserve its dense, upright appearance.

The best time to plant Private Jet Arborvitae is in early spring or early fall when temperatures are cooler and the tree can establish its roots before periods of extreme heat or cold. Container-grown trees can also be planted during much of the growing season with proper watering.

Private Jet Arborvitae grows significantly faster than Emerald Green Arborvitae while maintaining a relatively narrow, upright form. It's an excellent choice for homeowners who want privacy sooner without planting a much larger tree like Thuja Green Giant.

Homeowners love Private Jet Arborvitae for its rapid growth, dense evergreen foliage, naturally narrow shape, and ability to quickly create beautiful year-round privacy. It offers an excellent balance of speed, low maintenance, and space-saving growth.

All California orders require a mandatory inspection by the Texas Department of Agriculture (yep, it’s a USDA thing!). These inspections happen about once a week—typically on Tuesdays, though the day can vary. If you place an order just after an inspection, your plant may not ship for several days until the next one. Unfortunately, we’re not able to expedite this part of the process.

Also, due to USDA regulations, we’re unable to ship oak trees, citrus or fruit trees (except olive trees) to California. This rule helps prevent the spread of pests and diseases and applies to nurseries across the country.

Thanks for your patience—we’ll make sure it’s worth the wait.
