Description

This is the handsome Emerald Green Arborvitae in a sculpted poodle tier form! It is an evergreen conifer featuring attractive, dark emerald green foliage year round and no color change in winter. The Arborvitae poodle tier requires far less maintenance to maintain its form than do many other spiral formed plants such as junipers and small leafed hollies. Generally, one to two light trimmings annually will maintain the plants form.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing to a height of 8 to 10 feet and 2 to 3 feet wide (depending on pruning), the Poodle Tier Emerald Green Arborvitae is ideal for use in the ground or pots, planters and other containers to accentuate and frame entryways or as a specimen in home foundation plantings and landscape borders. A fine addition to formal and topiary gardens, conifer gardens, rock gardens and container gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 5 feet apart for space between plants

Growing Preferences

Arborvitae are very easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained soil of average fertility, including clay soil, in full sun to light shade. In containers, choose a pot with a drainage hole(s) and use a quality potting soil or potting mix or a 50/50 mix thereof. For best performance we suggest a minimum of 7 hours direct sunlight. Constantly soggy or wet soils can be problematic. Maintenance is minimal; very little if any pruning ever required.

Average Trimming Per Year: 1 to 2

We recently redesigned our front flowerbeds for the Fall season. We were able to find one 7 gal 3-ball Arborvitae Tree and needed one more for our design. Unfortunately, all of the nurseries in our area no longer carried them. I was so thrilled to find online at Wilson Bros Gardens. The tree was packaged very well and arrived in perfect condition within 3 business days! We will definitely use Wilson Bros again and have passed along their info to our landscaper. Thank you for the great variety and excellent customer service.———————————Thanks so much for the photos! We are so glad you are pleased with your purchase! Thanks for the kind words and great review!
