Thuja Arborvitae Blue Cone | Live Trees | Evergreen Privacy Screening Hedge Plants

This is an uncommon arborvitae, yet a wonderful addition to your landscape. Bright green foliage in vertical sprays with little, if any, bronzing in the winter. Distinguishing feature is the bright glaucous blue cones which are a great contrast against the green foliage. Grows in an upright oval, almost egg-shaped habit. Good growth rate, broad oval shape, and dense green foliage make this arborvitae a good choice for a screen or border of a moderate height. The Blue Cone Arborvitae (Thuja orientalis) is an upright/Mounded evergreen that brings great structure to a landscape. It has bright green foliage that experiences minimal bronzing during the winter months. This foliage is fanned and feathery, quite similar in texture to the very popular Emerald Green Arborvitae. Blue Cone Arborvitae grows upright with a mounded habit and reaches a moderate size of 10-12 feet in height and 5-6 feet width at maturity. Another distinguishing feature of the Blue Cone Arborvitae are the small cones that are baby-powder blue that will ripen to a mahogany brown. This cultivar is perfect as a low-maintenance privacy screen, specimen, accent, or wind break. Furthermore, its dense foliage does a fantastic job of filtering out noise and pollution when planted in a tight row as a privacy planting.
