• Arborvitae Trees: The king of evergreen privacy trees. These trees are characterized by their fast growth speed and dense growth habit. Perfect for blocking our nosey neighbors or dampening wind.
• Southern Magnolia Trees: Iconic symbols of the southern United States. In addition to their leathery green leaves these plants boast gorgeous white flowers from spring through fall.
• Cypress Trees: Select varieties of these columnar plants don't drop their leaves! They are quite similar to Arborvitae but have open, mult-directional sprigs which more closely resemble needles.

The Longleaf Pine is a native evergreen tree found in woodland areas of the southern United States. The long needle-like leaves of this conifer provide shelter and food for wildlife. They can live for hundreds of years.
