EVERGREEN PREMIER SELECTION
 
Thuja occidentalis 'Tom Thumb'
 
 
 Overall Description
 
  This arborvitae variety is semi dwarf, and globe shaped in habit. Foliage is very dense, and consists of nice green sprays which hold their color very well through the winter - minimal bronzing, if any, in cold weather. Makes a great little accent plant, or can even be used as a lower growing hedge when planted about 2 feet apart. Tom Thumb Arborvitae grows just slightly larger than Danica Globe or Hetzi Midget, but is smaller than Woodwardi Globe. Very hardy - excellent disease resistance and vigor for a semi dwarf variety. Probably our favorite among the dwarf / semi-dwarf Arborvitae varieties we grow. Just a good, all around variety.
