Zone: 5VIRGINIAN™ ARBORVITAE
Thuja plicata x standishii "BFC68' PP26684 is commonly referred to as Virginian™ Arborvitae. It is an improved sport of the Green Giant Arborvitae with a shorter, more compact and cold hardy habit that requires no pruning. This reliable selection grows just as fast as the Green Giant Arb and features dense new growth with slightly pendulous branches. Foliage is dark green, soft and feathery with great color retention through winter.
Virginian™ Arborvitae thrives in full sun in average, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It is not particular on soil type, but may need some afternoon shade if planted in hot climates. Ideal as a specimen plant or for hedges and privacy screens.

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.
