My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Trimming Arborvitae

9 years ago

I have several Danica Arborvitae that are much bigger than they said they would get. Can I prune these at all? I know they don't have dormant buds. Mature height and width was SUPPOSED to be 2' x 2' but these are twice as big.
