Description & Plant Facts

EVERGREEN PREMIER SELECTION

Thuja occidentalis 'Lutea' / 'George Peabody'

For years has widely been considered to be one of the very best yellow foliaged arborvitaes available. George Peabody has a broad, pyramidal growth habit with bright golden yellow foliage sprays that are a light yellowish green on their undersides. Holds color better than most yellow varieties, with minimal bronzing through the winter. Slow to moderate growth, loves full sun. Slightly acidic soil is best, but will tolerate most soil conditions as long as the soil drains well. It is commonly used for accent plantings, small - medium sized hedge, or even as a single specimen planting, or bright focal point in medium sized gardens.
