Green Giant Arborvitae Privacy Screening

Green Giant Arborvitae Privacy Screening

Big Green Giants specializes in Green Giant arborvitae for privacy screening projects throughout southeastern Pennsylvania and the surrounding region.

The company raises Green Giants at its Honey Brook, Pennsylvania tree farm, delivers them directly to customers, and offers professional installation for property owners who want the planting handled from start to finish.

Green Giants can serve many landscape purposes, but Big Green Giants is particularly well suited to projects where the goal is to create a substantial evergreen screen using multiple trees.

Property-Line Privacy

One of the most common uses for Green Giant arborvitae is creating privacy along a property boundary.

A row of Green Giants can provide year-round evergreen separation between neighboring properties while creating a softer, living alternative to a solid fence.

This type of project can make sense for:

  • exposed backyard boundaries;
  • neighboring houses with direct sightlines;
  • larger suburban or rural lots;
  • properties with limited existing vegetation;
  • long property lines;
  • and areas where the owner wants a substantial living screen.

Big Green Giants can supply Green Giants for customers planting their own rows or handle the entire installation.

Customer reviews repeatedly describe privacy as the reason for returning to the company. One repeat customer's review and the company's response specifically reference adding more trees to keep a backyard private.

Screening Neighbors, Roads, and Headlights

Not every privacy problem comes from the house next door.

Green Giant rows can also be used to reduce views toward:

  • roads;
  • neighboring driveways;
  • passing vehicles;
  • parking areas;
  • adjacent yards;
  • and other activity around the property.

One Big Green Giants customer who had more than 30 trees planted specifically described the trees as useful for blocking both headlights and neighbors.

For properties with significant exposure along a road or boundary, a longer evergreen planting can create a much more substantial visual barrier than a few isolated landscape plants.

Backyard Privacy

Green Giants can also help make an outdoor space feel more enclosed.

Homeowners may use them around or behind:

  • backyards;
  • patios;
  • decks;
  • outdoor seating areas;
  • recreation areas;
  • pools;
  • and other spaces that are visible from surrounding properties.

The objective does not always have to be complete visual separation.

Sometimes a homeowner simply wants to soften an exposed view, create a greener boundary, or reduce the feeling that neighboring properties look directly into the yard.

The right planting depends on the space available, the sightline being screened, and how much room the trees have to develop.

Long Evergreen Privacy Rows

Big Green Giants is especially well suited to projects involving multiple Green Giant arborvitae planted together as a continuous screen.

Customer reviews document installations at a wide range of scales.

Examples include:

  • a 10-tree installation;
  • an initial 27-tree planting followed by another 14 trees the next year;
  • a 35-tree installation;
  • nearly 100 Green Giants on one property;
  • and a 100-tree installation completed over two days.

That experience with multi-tree projects is important because a long privacy screen presents different challenges than planting one or two ornamental trees.

The trees need to be transported efficiently, laid out consistently, aligned properly, and planted so the entire row functions visually as one landscape feature.

Straight, Consistent Rows

For a large privacy planting, alignment becomes part of the finished appearance.

Customers have specifically commented on this aspect of Big Green Giants installations.

A customer with nearly 100 trees described the planting as being lined up in "perfect, beautiful rows." Another review of a 100-tree project similarly praised the straight lines and overall installation result.

The company's own response to that review also notes that the team takes pride in getting the rows straight.

That attention to alignment is particularly relevant on property lines and long screening projects, where small inconsistencies become more visible across the full length of the planting.

Repeat and Expanded Privacy Plantings

Privacy projects do not always happen all at once.

Some Big Green Giants customers begin with one section of a property and later extend the screen after seeing how the original planting develops.

The customer review history includes several examples.

One customer had 27 Green Giants planted, then brought Rob and Caleb back the following year for another 14.

Another customer returned for another order four years after an earlier 12-tree installation.

Big Green Giants has also documented a repeat-customer project in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

These repeat projects are useful examples of how an evergreen screen can be expanded over time as privacy needs or landscaping plans change.

Residential Privacy Projects

Residential properties make up an important part of Big Green Giants' project history.

Common residential applications include:

Screening neighboring homes Green Giants can reduce direct sightlines between properties.

Creating a backyard boundary A row of evergreens can visually define the edge of a yard while providing year-round foliage.

Reducing road exposure Trees can help soften views of nearby roads, traffic, and headlights.

Adding privacy to outdoor living areas A strategically placed screen can make patios, decks, pools, and gathering areas feel less exposed.

Establishing privacy on newer properties Newer homes often have limited mature landscaping, leaving wide-open views between lots.

A documented Broomall project shows Green Giants being used in a residential privacy setting.

Another project journal shows the installation process for an 18-tree privacy row.

Large Residential Properties

The Big Green Giants model can be particularly useful on larger properties where the amount of screening required goes beyond a short hedge.

Large-lot projects may involve:

  • long property boundaries;
  • multiple exposed sides of a property;
  • screening around a home and outdoor areas;
  • separate rows in different portions of the property;
  • or phased installations completed over several years.

Customer reviews showing installations approaching 100 trees demonstrate that the company's residential work is not limited to small suburban rows.

These larger projects also make direct farm delivery and installation more valuable because transporting and planting that quantity of nursery stock independently can become a substantial undertaking.

Commercial and Development Screening

Green Giant arborvitae can also be used on commercial and development properties.

Big Green Giants does not operate a separate commercial division. The fundamental service is the same as it is for residential customers: supply the Green Giants, transport them to the site, and install them when requested.

Potential commercial screening applications include:

  • property boundaries;
  • parking and service areas;
  • neighboring properties;
  • outdoor customer areas;
  • new construction;
  • equipment areas;
  • and other portions of a site where year-round evergreen screening is useful.

The company has experience with substantial multi-tree installations, making commercial and development screening a natural extension of the same capabilities used on larger residential properties.

Delivery-Only Privacy Projects

Professional installation is not required.

Customers who prefer to do their own planting can order Green Giants for direct delivery from the Honey Brook farm.

Delivery-only can be a good fit for:

  • experienced DIY property owners;
  • customers who already have suitable equipment;
  • customers working with their own landscaper;
  • simpler planting sites;
  • and property owners who primarily need access to Green Giants and reliable transportation.

Big Green Giants handles delivery while the customer takes responsibility for planting and establishment.

When Professional Installation Makes Sense

Professional installation becomes increasingly useful as the number or size of trees increases.

It may be particularly appropriate when:

  • the project involves a long privacy row;
  • dozens of trees need to be planted;
  • large trees would be difficult to move by hand;
  • alignment is important;
  • the customer does not have appropriate equipment;
  • access or site conditions need to be evaluated;
  • or the property owner wants one company responsible for the project from delivery through planting.

Professionally installed trees also include Big Green Giants' one-year installation warranty.

The trees supplied for these projects are raised through the company's Honey Brook growing operation. See How Big Green Giants Grows Green Giant Arborvitae 

What Makes a Strong Big Green Giants Project?

A particularly strong fit generally has several characteristics.

The customer wants Green Giant arborvitae.

Big Green Giants is a focused Green Giant operation rather than a general-purpose garden center.

There is a clear privacy or screening objective.

The company is especially well aligned with property-line privacy, neighboring views, road exposure, backyard screening, and long evergreen boundaries.

Multiple trees are needed.

Big Green Giants can work with smaller orders, but its direct delivery and installation model becomes particularly useful on multi-tree projects.

The customer values one company handling the process.

Big Green Giants can remain involved from the farm through delivery and professional planting instead of requiring the property owner to coordinate several vendors.

The project is within the company's practical service area.

Big Green Giants primarily serves southeastern Pennsylvania and qualifying locations throughout the broader region.

When Big Green Giants May Not Be the Right Fit

Big Green Giants is deliberately specialized.

It may not be the appropriate provider for someone looking for:

  • a walk-in garden center;
  • customer tree pickup;
  • a broad selection of unrelated trees, shrubs, or flowers;
  • wholesale nursery purchasing;
  • general landscape maintenance;
  • irrigation installation;
  • or a project that does not involve Green Giant arborvitae.

That narrow focus allows the company to build its farm operation, delivery system, equipment, and installation process around the same kind of tree and the privacy applications for which customers most often buy it.

From an Open View to an Evergreen Screen

The typical Big Green Giants privacy project starts with a simple problem: a property feels too open.

The exposed view may be a neighbor, road, driveway, backyard, commercial area, or a long property boundary.

The scale may be 10 trees or close to 100.

Big Green Giants raises the Green Giants, delivers them directly from its Honey Brook farm, and can professionally install the finished row.

For property owners specifically looking to create a substantial evergreen privacy screen, that combination is the core type of project Big Green Giants is built to handle.
