“Thin Man” Arborviate
Thuja occidentalis "SMTOTM"
Left: “Thin Man” Arborvitae at our river growing fields. Right: 12' “Thin Man”.
We are pleased to announce that our first crop of “Thin Man” Arborvitae is now available for sale. There has long been a need for narrow evergreen tree that is taller than an “Emerald Green” Arborvitae, and this is it!
We planted a small crop of these trees several years ago as 18” “starts”. We have since planted two other, larger, crops. As far as we can tell, no other nursery in the country has grown these trees to maturity; certainly no one in the Northwest, and photos are few and far between. We have been very satisfied with the rate and quality of the trees’ growth, but no one is able to tell us for sure what the mature height and width will be, so we are estimating those based on our experience. The best example we have is the tree from our nursery in the above-right photo. Very nice looking and still growing . . .
ATTRIBUTES
Foliage: Evergreen
Mature Height: Estimated at 18-20’ tall
Mature Width: Estimated at 2.5-3.0’ wide
Sunlight: Full sun, partial sun.
Soil:. Needs well-drained soil.
Growth Rate: Medium-fast—1.5’-2' a year once established, depending on growing conditions.
"Instant Privacy" Use: A narrow tree taller and faster growing than the Emerald Green Arborvitae..
"Instant Privacy" Spacing: 2’ “centers”.
What to Expect the First Year: As with all newly-planted trees, these need to be watered carefully through the first Spring/Summer--see our "Care of Your Trees" section for more details. Not as much growth the first year because the tree is putting its efforts into its root system. Possibly some small branches that were broken during installation will turn brown (cut them off or just leave them and they will fall off).
Comments: As mentioned, this is our first crop of these trees and we are still learning about them.

Customer Satisfaction: Most important of all is what our customers think of us:
"I am really pleased with your work. You saved me several thousand dollars, steered me away from trees that wouldn't work, provided healthy and beautiful trees, did a great job planting them, and did everything on time and on schedule. You can quote me." Jo, Vashon Island
"Our privacy bank of trees has done nothing but grow well into maturity. Our back yard and deck area is totally private and the 10 trees your team planted [in 2005] are rich, leathery and dark green. We remark on them every day it seems. Please include me in any of your "Testimonials" as you would be hard pressed to find a more satisfied customer." Jim, Port Orchard
"For quality vs. value, your trees are the best landscape purchase I’ve ever made." Jeff, Seattle
"Michael, I just wanted to pass along a note to tell you how thrilled I am with the trees. The effect they have brought to our new courtyard in the front of our home here in Seattle has exceeded my expectations!" Chip Hanauer, Hydroplane Driver--Click Here to see his project.
"I work in customer service so I know good service when I experience it and you have my top rating. I would definitely recommend you to anyone who needs new landscaping. Thanks again.” Carol, Camano Island
"The [new] trees were a great privacy feature when we sold the last house! We now have a much larger space we want to talk with you about . . " Katherine, Fall City
“My compliments to your crew. We’ve had a lot of contractors working on our house recently and we’ve seen the entire range; and your guys were excellent. The trees make things look so much better—I started smiling as soon as I saw them going in." Holly, Queen Anne
"You guys are the best nursery I've ever done business with! And I have dealt with a few. You did what you said you would, on time with attention to detail rarely found. From the beginning of the quote process all the way through to the last detail you made it easy. And you work to ensure that the trees will thrive after planting with detailed advice, a complementary irrigation system, and a website filled with useful information. Most nurseries will just dump off the goods and tell you best of luck, put some water on them. You provide a quality product that sets you apart. Your crew was friendly, polite and operated as a well organized team. I would recommend you without hesitation! Thanks for doing a great job!” Ryan, Buckley
"We can not believe how beautiful your trees are. The privacy is unbelievable. If you ever need a testimonial let us know. Our yard is perfect! We sit there and say "my oh my”! Suzanne, Tacoma
"I don't think I've ever been as happy with something I've purchased." Sarah, Sammamish
