Try these simple and beautiful-looking arborvitae landscaping ideas in your front yard as decoration.
They are low maintenance and easy to set up. You just give it a shape and it will shine.
Once in a while trim them so they do not grow too big and create a mess. That is the only maintenance work you need to do.
If you are new to this thuja design then hire someone to do it for you. So with that here are those landscaping ideas.
1. Plant Arborvitaes in the Front Yard
Just plant them in the front yard in a line as they will look good. Trim them occasionally to not let them grow too big.
You must keep the surroundings clean as shown in the picture or the ideas will not look good.
Mow the lawn once a month for a better look and feel.
2. Plant A Single Arborvitae
You do not need to plant too many arborvitae trees in the yard if your space is small. Just one will do the trick.
Then plant flowers alongside it to make it look good.
3. Decorate with Flowers
Plant flowers underneath the tree to build this design.
I would say you build a flower bed around it. That way it will look more colorful and shiny.
4. Use Tools for Decoration
There are some tools that you can buy and use them to decorate the trees.
It will be super easy to maintain the shape and size of the arborvitaes month after month.
Just plant the frame and trim. That is it.
5. Give it a Shape
You can also give it a human-like shape or any animal like an Elephant, or a horse.
Again you need some tools to keep the design in shape.
Talk to your nearest landscaper to build it for you as it will take some professionalism to set up.
6. Build a Garden
Plant arborvitae in a messy way to build this design.
But keep the roots clean all the time or the trees will die soon.
7. Plant them in Pots
You can also plant arborvitaes in pots and see them up in the front door as decoration.
They look green and beautiful. Just do not overdo it, a few will do the job.
8. Use them as Fence
Use the arborvitaes as a privacy fence in your backyard.
They are tall and will hide anything you want and give you complete privacy.
9. Mix them with Shrubs
Shrubs are beautiful when mixed with thuja or arborvitaes. Create a garden with them and they will look good.
The maintenance part is big so if you select this design know that you need to make a good amount of effort to keep the design in shape.
10. Add Mulch Underneath It
To reduce the first and weeds build up you must add mulch underneath the tree.
That way your maintenance work will be less and the area will look clean and tidy week after week.
Last Words
So these are the best arborvitae landscaping ideas I can give you to decorate your front and backyard.
Keep maintenance in mind when choosing a good design.
They are simple but some ideas may need help from a professional. Okay! I wish you the best of luck.
