If you’re considering a cedar hedge, the first question to ask is: Emerald Cedar or Eastern White Cedar?
Each has its own benefits, from the formal, deep green of Emerald Cedars to the dense, natural growth of Eastern White Cedars. The right choice depends on privacy, budget, maintenance preferences—and how you define a hedge.
For some, a hedge is just a line of trees that look stately and formal but provide less privacy over the long term — that would be an Emerald Cedar hedge.
For others, it’s a thick, seamless, natural barrier that blends into the landscape, making Eastern White Cedars the better choice.
