'Little Giant' Arborvitae

Little Giant arborvitae grows slowly into a rounded evergreen shrub with rich green foliage. Its compact globe shape fits foundation beds, low hedges, borders and large containers.

Provide evenly moist, fertile, well-drained soil. Grow in sun, with afternoon shade useful in hot climates. It dislikes dry conditions, so water during prolonged dry weather and shelter it from harsh winds.
