Measure the area where you want your hedge or row to determine the number of trees needed based on the length of the planting site. This plant grows rather quickly and needs 5-10 feet between each tree for optimal growth. Watering: For the first month after planting, water your tree every other day with a generous soak with the hose at the base of the tree. For the next 6 months, water the same way once a week unless it is dry and hot. Fertilizing: Feed your Green Giant at the beginning of each spring with a balanced, slow release fertilizer. Pruning: If your tree has space to maintain its naturally elegant pyramid shape, no pruning is necessary. However, if you are growing them closely together as a hedge, you can shear them annually after the last frost.
