Frequently asked questions
Which cedar tree should I choose?
Smaragd: Tall, narrow, great for tight spaces.
Brandon: Slightly wider, good for medium-height hedges.
Nigra: Dark green, dense, and grows tall for maximum privacy.
Why choose your cedars over others?
All our cedars are grown on our own land in Quebec by our sister company, La Cédrière du Québec.
Being cultivated in Quebec ensures they are perfectly adapted to Canada’s northern climate — stronger roots, better survival, and long-lasting greenery.
Do your trees come from British Columbia?
No — none of our cedars come from British Columbia.
Cedar trees from BC are not well suited for Ontario’s weather conditions.
Our Quebec-grown trees are hardened by colder winters and natural soil conditions, making them far more resilient once planted in Ontario.
How are your trees measured?
Unlike many competitors, our height measurements do not include the pot.
When we advertise a 6-foot cedar, you get a true 6-foot tree — not a 5-foot tree in a 1-foot container.
This ensures transparency and fairness in every order.

Is there any warranty?
We offer a default warranty covering 50% of replacement cost for any dead cedar. We also have an all-inclusive warranty, which replaces dead trees for free, under certain conditions.
What spacing should I use for my cedar trees?
We recommend planting every 2 ft for a thick, full hedge. 2.5 ft or 3 ft spacing also works if you prefer a slightly lighter look. You can use out cedar calculator to know exactly how many cedar you need.
Can you install the trees for me?
Yes! We offer professional installation in the Greater Toronto Area. You can choose this option during your quote request.
How long until my hedge is fully grown?
Most cedar types grow about 6–12 inches per year, but our trees also provide instant privacy thanks to their size at planting. With proper spacing and care, your hedge will look full and private immediately.
