Instant Hedging : Western Red Cedar

Western Red Cedar

Thuja Plicata (Western Red Cedar) is a conifer that grows up to 75 cm per year. It has soft green foliage and is ideal for creating an instant impact. Thuja will grow well in most soils but does best in wet soils and grows fine in sun or shade. Thuja Plicata Atroviren is a variety of Thuja that has variagated foliage and so a prettier look than the plain Thuja Plicata.

We grow Thuja both in the ground an in pots so pop us an email to see what is in stock. We are happy to advise as to where Thuja would work best in your garden and how it compares to other instant hedging options.Plants at this height would be dug by hand and a hessian tied round the root-ball to protect the root system. The foliage is also tied.
