Benefits of 8 Foot Cedar Trees
1. Privacy and Shade
Unlike smaller saplings, 8 foot cedar trees create an instant natural barrier, reducing noise, screening views, and providing shade. This makes them ideal for residential and commercial properties.
They are not a ‘green wall’ just yet, but they provide decent privacy screening to start.
2. Low Maintenance and Durability
Eastern white cedar trees are naturally pest-resistant, drought-tolerant, and adaptable to various soil conditions. Once established, they require minimal care, making them a long-lasting investment for any landscape.
3. Sustainable and Eco-Friendly
Cedar trees improve air quality, absorb carbon dioxide, and provide a habitat for wildlife. Their evergreen nature ensures year-round greenery, enhancing curb appeal and property value.
How to Care for 8 Foot Cedar Trees
1. Proper Planting Techniques
For the best results, plant cedars in well-drained soil with full to partial sunlight. Space them adequately to allow for proper root expansion and airflow. Cedar Ontario is here to provide cedar planting tips to our customers.
2. Watering and Pruning
Newly planted trees require regular watering until established. Occasional pruning helps maintain shape and promotes dense, healthy growth (but not in the first season)
3. Winter Protection
Applying mulch around the base helps insulate roots, while burlap wrapping can protect against harsh winter winds and snow damage. Burlap is not always needed, it really depends on the site conditions.
