Evergreen Thuja occidentalis (Arborvitae)
Color Name: Emerald Petite™
Emerald Petite is a dense, feathery arborvitae that proves great things do, in fact, come in small packages! It's often said to have better growth habit and stronger hardiness than the famous Emerald Green arborvitae!
Emerald Petite is perfect for adding color and texture to any landscape, while also providing privacy and noise reduction. With a high survival rate and low maintenance needs, it's a great addition to any outdoor space!
*Perfect when grown in rows, groups, or as a stand-alone specimen!
*Excellent cold-hardiness and winter color, plus it's resistant to winter burn!
*Maintains shape without pruning.
*Very hardy and durable in the landscape.
*Excellent holiday or winter interest for patios and containers.
*Native to North America.
Growing Tips: Tolerates heat and drought once established. Keep watered after pruning to minimize browning; this is also an effective strategy to minimize winter damage to foliage in cold areas.
Soil: Adaptable in terms of pH; best growth is in moderately moist, cool, fertile soils.
Pruning: Does not strictly require pruning, though it does tolerate it well. Prune in spring before new growth begins.
Uses: Hedges; screening; mixed borders; foundation plantings; specimen.
