Thank you👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
How old would that tree be?
The eastern white cedar in the video is likely between 15 and 20 years old. Eastern white cedars are very long-lived and highly adaptable to local conditions. There are 700 year-old trees growing on the exposed cliffs of the Niagara Escarpment in Ontario that are hardly a metre tall. But a normal eastern white cedar would grow to about 15 m tall, and about 10 m wide at the base.
@Simply Science good to know. Not the privacy tree I'm looking for then. Lol
