TEDDY ARBORVITAE
Thuja occidentalis 'Teddy' is commonly referred to as Teddy Arborvitae or Teddy Northern White Cedar. It is a dwarf, globe shrub with soft, bright green foliage that turns bronze on the tips in the winter and reddish-brown bark that peels in vertical strips which all adds to its winter interest.
Teddy Arborvitae is a hardy, low maintenance evergreen shrub that thrives in full sun in average, evenly moist, well-drained soils. Its dome shape adds a nice architectural element to gardens.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in fertile, well-draining soil, selecting a location that receives full sun to partial shade for the best foliage density and color. These evergreen species are adaptable, but they require consistent moisture to remain healthy and vibrant, particularly during the first few growing seasons until the root system is well established. Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead wood or to lightly shape the plant, avoiding deep cuts into old wood where foliage will not regrow. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, taking care to keep the material a few inches away from the crown to prevent stem rot.
