Nigra Arborvitae
Thuja Occidentalis ‘Nigra’
One of the best varieties for cold climates. When many other arborvitae look yellow-brown in winter, ‘Nigra’ retains its deep, dark green color. Easy to prune. Useful as a specimen, accent, hedge and commonly found in foundation plantings. Prefers deep, well-drained soil and full sun.
