Emerald Arborvitae

Emerald Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis 'Smaragd') is a popular evergreen shrub known for its vibrant green foliage and elegant, columnar shape. Its rich, emerald-green leaves hold their color year-round, providing year-round visual interest in the landscape. The dense, soft foliage offers an excellent screen or windbreak, making it a preferred choice for creating natural privacy barriers, borders, or as a statement plant in gardens.

Emerald Arborvitae is well-loved for its low-maintenance nature and adaptability. It thrives in a variety of soil types, though it prefers well-drained, slightly acidic soils. This evergreen performs best in full sun to partial shade, although it can tolerate a range of conditions. Its hardy nature allows it to withstand colder climates, making it ideal for northern regions. Resistant to many pests and diseases that affect other evergreens, Emerald Arborvitae remains a reliable choice for homeowners and landscapers looking to add a touch of lush greenery to their outdoor spaces with minimal care. Whether planted individually or in a row for a hedge, this tree is a versatile and attractive option for various landscaping needs.
