Arborvitae (Thuja)

Description

Arborvitae (pronounced AR-burr-vie-tee), scientifically known as Thuja, is a highly valued evergreen shrub or tree recognized for its dense, soft, scale-like foliage and its upright, naturally pyramidic form. Available in varying hues of green and gold, Arborvitae is a popular choice for privacy hedges, windbreaks, or as a formal ornamental landscape element. A row of Arborvitae trees planted as a privacy screen creates a tall, dense barrier, offering both beauty and seclusion.

Its compact, slow-growing vertical form makes Arborvitae ideal for small gardens, borders, and foundation plantings. Thriving in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil, Arborvitae is a hardy and low-maintenance plant that requires minimal pruning to maintain its signature shape. Drought-tolerant and unpalatable to deer, Arborvitae adds to its appeal as a versatile and durable landscaping option.
