Oriental Thuja
Thuja orientalis Aurea Nana
This is a fantastically coloured, slow growing evergreen conifer with a dense, conical to columnar growth habit. Dense sprays of yellow-green foliage become an intense shade of vibrant yellow in the summer, before taking on a bronze tinge in the winter. Its extremely slow growth rate of between 3 and 5cm of new growth per year makes it ideal for incorporating into the rockery or heather garden. It can also be grown as a slow-growing, ornamental evergreen hedge but must be sited in locations sheltered from strong winds.
