Thuja occidentalis Dumosa

Common Name: Dumosa Arborvitae

Description:
Thuja occidentalis 'Dumosa' is a compact, slow-growing evergreen conifer with a dense, rounded habit and soft, fine-textured green foliage. This hardy, low-maintenance shrub maintains its vibrant colour year-round, developing a subtle bronze tint in winter. Its naturally neat and symmetrical form makes it ideal for borders, rockeries, foundation plantings, and container growing. Thriving in well-drained soils, 'Dumosa' prefers full sun to part shade and is highly resistant to cold, wind, and urban pollution. Its small size and elegant form make it a fantastic choice for structured garden designs and low hedging.
