Thuja occidentalis 'Sherwood Frost' (Sherwood Frost Arborvitae)

An exciting new evergreen shrub for northern gardens, featuring creamy variegated foliage all season long; upright and pyramidal habit, very compact, ideal for home landscapes and gardens; hardy and adaptable, best with sun, protect from drying winds

Sherwood Frost Arborvitae is a dense multi-stemmed evergreen shrub with a shapely oval form. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage.

This is a relatively low maintenance shrub. When pruning is necessary, it is recommended to only trim back the new growth of the current season, other than to remove any dieback. It has no significant negative characteristics.

Sherwood Frost Arborvitae is a dwarf conifer which is primarily valued in the landscape or garden for its decidedly oval form. It has attractive white-variegated green  foliage. The scale-like sprays of foliage are highly ornamental and remain green throughout the winter.

Sherwood Frost Arborvitae will grow to be about 6 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 5 feet. It tends to fill out right to the ground and therefore doesn't necessarily require facer plants in front, and is suitable for planting under power lines. It grows at a slow rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 30 years.
