Emerald Green Arborvitae 1 Live Plant – Thuja occidentalis ‘Smaragd’ – Quart Pot

Emerald Green Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis ‘Smaragd’) is an evergreen conifer known for its dense, vibrant green foliage and naturally narrow, pyramidal growth habit. Its soft, flattened sprays of scale-like leaves form a tidy, upright silhouette, making it a popular choice for formal landscapes, evergreen borders, and garden accents.

This arborvitae maintains attractive green foliage throughout the year, providing consistent color and structure in the landscape. Its naturally compact, columnar-pyramidal form makes it especially useful for privacy screens, hedges, foundation plantings, and property borders. Closely spaced specimens can create a uniform evergreen planting, while individual plants serve as vertical accents in mixed landscapes.

This listing includes one live Emerald Green Arborvitae in a quart-size nursery pot (QT). The plant prefers full sun to partial shade and grows best in fertile, well-drained soil with moderate, consistent moisture. Foliage color, branching density, and overall appearance may vary according to the season and growing conditions.
