American arborvitae

Thuja occidentalis 'Tiny Tim'

American arborvitae, (Thuja occidentalis 'Tiny Tim'), is a small, ornamental evergreen conifer that is native to eastern North America. It grows into a dense, pyramidal shape, with a narrow upright form and bright green foliage. 'Tiny Tim' grows slowly to a compact size of 3-5 feet in height and 1-2 feet in width and is perfect for small gardens. It is drought-tolerant and thrives in partial shade to full sunlight. American arborvitae requires little maintenance and is resistant to deer, making it perfect for use as a foundation shrub or privacy hedge. This low maintenance shrub adds interest with year round color and texture, making it a great choice for a small garden.
