Have you ever heard the phrase, "good fences make good neighbors?" It's kind of a cynical way of looking at the
world, but think back to some of your former neighbors and you'll probably have to admit, fences have their
place especially if you live "in town."
And while fences are good at keeping your dog "in" and your neighbors' dog "out," they aren't very good at
screening objectionable views. But many conifers are, and one of my favorites is the Eastern arborvitae cultivar
'Hetz Wintergreen'.

Perhaps in the past you've been "burned" by arborvitae that have discolored during the winter months, become
gangly, open, and unattractive in old age, or grown so slowly that you've simply decided to remove them from
the landscape.But 'Hetz Wintergreen' arborvitae is different. Its handsome medium to dark green foliage stays
that way even during the most severe winter. It grows much faster, and develops into a beautiful privacy tree.
