Woodward Arborvitae

Introducing a dense, soft evergreen that you rarely need to trim! The Woodward Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis 'Woodwardii') is a compact, round plant that stays trim and tidy all on its own!

Woodward Arborvitae has dense, soft, scale-like, green foliage that forms flattened sprays at the ends of short, ascending branches. Its small flowers are inconspicuous and develop ½ inch cones that the birds will seek out despite you not noticing them.

Cold-hardy throughout USDA planting zones 3 to 7, these wider-than-tall evergreen shrubs pack a lot of coverage into a lower-growing form! The tidy and evenly spaced branching has a fine-textured appearance that always looks spiffy!

Landscape Application:

Woodward is an excellent foundation plant, growing 4 - 6 feet tall so it won't block your view. Their wide spread of 8 - 10 feet provides fast coverage without adding bulky height! But you can keep yours trimmed to conform to any width you need.

This easy-to-maintain and soft-to-the-touch evergreen is well suited for a mid-sized hedge, backdrop, border, or lining a sidewalk. You will love the effect of a row creating polite property division or separating your front yard from the street.

This wide growth makes Woodward a fast privacy hedge that fills in quickly. Plant yours 7-8 feet apart on center to create a solid fill, or space them looser for a more informal hedge. Fill a hard-to-mow hillside or eroding slope by planting zig-zagging plantings of Woodward to transform these tricky landscape features.
