Thuja occidentalis Linesville

Common Name: Linesville Arborvitae (AKA "Mr. Bowling Ball")

Description:
Thuja occidentalis 'Linesville', commonly known as Mr. Bowling Ball Arborvitae, is a compact, slow-growing evergreen conifer with a naturally rounded, dense habit. Its fine, soft, feathery green foliage maintains a vibrant colour year-round, taking on a subtle bronze tint in winter. This dwarf variety is perfect for borders, foundation plantings, rockeries, and container growing, requiring little to no pruning due to its naturally spherical form. Thriving in well-drained soils, 'Linesville' prefers full sun to part shade and is highly resistant to cold, wind, and urban pollution. Its low-maintenance nature and unique shape make it an excellent choice for formal and modern gardens.
