Thuja occidentalis Tom Thumb
Tom Thumb Arborvitea
Tom Thumb arborvitae forms a small, dense globe without regular shaping. Light green spring growth becomes deeper green in summer, and the foliage retains its color well through winter. Its compact shape is useful in shrub borders and small gardens.
Grow in sun or partial shade with rich, moist, well-drained soil.
