Thuja

Scientific Name:
Platycladus orientalis

Thuja, commonly known as Arborvitae, is a popular choice for hedges and ornamental landscaping due to its dense foliage and attractive pyramidal shape. It thrives in well-drained soil and prefers full sunlight for optimal growth. Thuja is tolerant of pruning, making it ideal for creating neat, structured garden designs. It requires moderate watering and is adaptable to a range of soil types, adding both aesthetic value and privacy to outdoor spaces. Its evergreen nature ensures year-round greenery and provides shelter for wildlife.
