Thuja occidentalis little Champion

Little Champion Arborvitae

Little Champion arborvitae develops a compact globe of medium to dark green foliage. It grows more vigorously when young and slows with age. The naturally rounded form suits a small hedge, conifer border, specimen planting or container.

Choose sun and moist, well-drained soil. Neutral to alkaline soil is suitable.
