Thuja occidentalis Globosa

Common Name: Globe Arborvitae

Description:
Thuja occidentalis 'Globosa', commonly known as Globe Arborvitae, is a compact, slow-growing evergreen conifer with a naturally rounded, dense habit. Its soft, rich green foliage maintains colour year-round, developing a slight bronze tint in winter. This hardy and low-maintenance shrub is ideal for borders, foundation plantings, rockeries, and container growing. Thriving in well-drained soils, 'Globosa' prefers full sun to part shade and is highly resistant to cold, wind, and urban pollution. Its naturally tidy growth makes it a fantastic choice for formal gardens and structured landscapes.
