Thuja, often known as Arborvitae, is a resilient evergreen conifer prized for its dense, scale-like foliage and elegant, conical shape. Whether used as a hedge, screen, or specimen plant, Thuja provides year-round greenery and excellent windbreak properties. Its soft, fragrant foliage comes in shades of deep green, with some varieties taking on golden tones or bronzed highlights in winter. The tree’s natural, upright form requires little pruning to maintain a neat appearance.
Tolerant of a wide range of soils and conditions, Thuja thrives in urban settings, exposed sites, and even coastal gardens. Its ability to create a lush, evergreen barrier while remaining relatively low maintenance has made it a popular choice for privacy hedges and ornamental plantings.
