TOM THUMB DWARF ARBORVITAE
Thuja occidentalis 'Tom Thumb' is commonly referred to as Tom Thumb Arborvitae or Tom Thumb Eastern White Cedar. It is a dense, small, multi-stemmed evergreen shrub with a nice, neat globular habit that features rich green foliage that require no pruning to maintain its rounded shape. Foliage emerges light green in spring and darkens to a medium green in summer with good color retention throughout the winter.
Tom Thumb Arborvitae thrives in full to partial sun in rich, moist, well-drained soils. This naturally globe-shaped selection is ideal shrub borders and small 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.
