Thuja occidentalis 'Little Giant'

The Thuja occ. 'Little Giant' is a compact, slow-growing evergreen that brings year-round interest and structure to smaller gardens or landscapes. With its naturally rounded, dense form and soft, rich green foliage, this miniature version of the classic arborvitae is perfect for adding texture and color to foundation plantings, borders, or containers. It offers the same durability and year-round beauty as larger Thuja varieties, but in a size that’s well-suited for more confined spaces.

This hardy, low-maintenance shrub is perfect for gardeners looking for a versatile, tidy evergreen that requires little upkeep. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and adapts well to a variety of soil types, including well-drained or slightly acidic soils. While it grows slowly, its small size and dense foliage make it ideal for adding a formal touch or a natural hedge in smaller areas or along pathways.
