Emerald Green Arborvitae | 1 Gallon Live Tree | Thuja Occidentalis Smaragd

A narrow, pyramidal evergreen with dense, emerald green foliage that holds its color throughout winter thrives in the heat and humidity of the south and tolerates dry spells when established. It is one of the most popular and effective shrubs for screening or tall hedge use and an ideal specimen for topiary.

The emerald arborvitae, also known as Emerald Green Thujas, are exceptional performers, adaptable to a variety of soil conditions and weather extremes. You will not have to deal with ugly browning in even the coldest of winters, meaning no unattractive dead spots or holes. Planting them every 3 feet creates a tidy, neat hedge that never needs trimming.

Emerald Greens are one of the thickest evergreens you can plant, forming a solid privacy fence that you'll never have to prune. They also look incredible in large decorative pots right on your doorstep. Plant them along your garden border, or as an attractive anchor tree at the corners of your home. This tree is very adaptable and versatile, making Emerald Green Thuja an extremely popular hedge tree with endless possibilities.

The 'Emerald Green' arborvitae usually reaches just 12-14 feet tall, with a spread of 3-4 feet, growing in a pyramidal form. Its foliage comes in flat sprays, and the needles appear covered in scales. While not the fastest grower in its group, the size of this slow grower is often just about right for a privacy hedge.

Shimmering emerald green foliage with a classic narrow, pyramidal form make the emerald arborvitae attractive in all seasons. Unlike other arborvitaes, this cultivar keeps its lustrous color even in the cold winter months. The emerald arborvitae is great for specimen or accent planting, hedges, privacy screens, and shelterbelts, and it also makes a good foundation plant.
