Can you grow arbovitae in containers?

Answer by  Zaka (2315)

Make sure the containers are large enough, say 50 to 70 inches in diameter. Leave the foliage exposed to direct sunlight and water frequently.

You can grow arborvitae in containers. The container should be approximately seven times the root ball, thus allowing the roots to spread down and out. Use a rich soil with a good drainage system as this is essential for the plant's health. They can get quite large so keep this in consideration when choosing a container.

Yes, you can. You need a container 6-7 bigger than the root ball. The soil needs to be a rich, well-drained soil and feel slightly damp. Plant the root ball in the center so it can stretch out and be sure it is even with the soil. After planting put on a couple of inches of mulch.
