LUCKY FIND WESTERN ARBORVITAE -
20 Feet Tall 15 Feet Wide--
Thuja plicata 'Lucky Find' (Western Redcedar) is a striking, colorful evergreen conifer known for its dynamic foliage and broadly pyramidal structure. Emerging with vibrant bright yellow-gold tips over soft green sprays, it provides exceptional year-round visual texture. In the winter months, the interior green foliage deepens to a dark, bronze-purple shade, while the golden tips continue to pop against the darker backdrop. Growing at a moderate rate to a mature size of roughly 20 feet tall and 15 feet wide, its graceful, arching branches make it a stand-out focal point or colorful hedge alternative to standard green arborvitae.
'Lucky Find' thrives in full sun to partial shade in moist, fertile, well-draining soil. Full sun brings out the brightest golden highlights, though it appreciates protection from harsh, dry wind and extreme heat. As a Thuja plicata derivative, it shows better natural resistance to bagworms and deer browsing than eastern arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis), though heavy deer pressure may still warrant protection while young. Its ideal spot in the landscape is as an eye-catching specimen tree, a colorful evergreen backdrop in large mixed borders, or planted in rows for a dense, colorful privacy screen.
