Our Thuja Smaragd hedging, commonly known as White Cedar, is an attractive evergreen choice for creating neat garden boundaries, screens and structured planting. Its naturally narrow, conical habit and dense bright green foliage give it a smart appearance throughout the year. Slower growing and more compact than many larger conifers, Thuja Smaragd is particularly useful where controlled growth and an elegant evergreen boundary are important.
Thuja Smaragd is well suited to gardens where a tidy, relatively narrow evergreen hedge is preferred. Its naturally upright form requires less vigorous growth management than faster-growing conifers, while regular light trimming can help plants develop into a dense and well-defined boundary.
The fresh green foliage retains its attractive appearance throughout the year, making White Cedar useful for screening, garden structure and more formal planting schemes. Its restrained growth also makes it a practical choice where space is more limited.
For a larger and more vigorous Thuja, explore our Western Red Cedar hedging. You can also browse our pines and conifers for other coniferous boundary plants, or discover our wider range of evergreen hedging for year-round screening options with different foliage, growth rates and styles.
