PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
A-
The raised head and early white-to-pink blooms give it a strong focal-point role without taking over the yard.
Growth Rate
B+
It fills in at a steady pace, especially with decent soil moisture and regular pruning.
Maintenance
B
Plan on spring pruning, watering in dry stretches, and keeping shoots cleaned up from the trunk.
Deer Resistance
C
Young trees like this can be browsed or rubbed by deer, so protect it while it establishes where pressure is heavy.
Small Space Fit
B
It works well in smaller ornamental spots, but the head still needs room to develop.
Screening Value
D
The single trunk and lifted canopy make it poor for privacy or blocking views.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this for homeowners who want a small flowering feature near a walk, patio, or front bed, not for customers trying to solve privacy or deer problems.

Only in a large container with careful watering and winter protection.

Found this company on GOOGLE, and so glad I did!
I needed trees asap, to create a fence from neighbors. None of the local nurseries had any stock for the Green Giant Arborvitae’s.
Only a 30 min ride, and we were met with the kindest folks and the BEST selection of trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials.
Don’t even bother with the Big Box stores, (if they have them, they are usually half dead) when you can get them bigger and HEALTHIER at Pro Growers. A N D local delivery is readily available!
