The Latin name is arborvitae, tree of life, but it is commonly known as Thuja. This is the Thuja Occidentalis, Eastern Arborvitae. The cones are very small and when mature like in this shot, they looks surprisingly like flowers.

 

This is the last of my flowers that are not flowers for the week. I have lots more from my winter garden, so I am sure more will show up in the stream.

Red-legged grasshoppers are plant feeders and can cause damage, usually during dry years. I found this one on an Eastern Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis) growing at Distant Hill Gardens in Walpole, New Hampshire, USA.

I zoooomed in and counted ~100 daffodils. For such a small area that is ridiculously high-in-number!

Thuja occidentalis 'Hetz Midget', 2019 photo, Common Name: Dwarf American or Eastern Arborvitae, Size: 3x3ft., Blue-green foliage, USDA Hardiness Zone 2, Michigan Bloom Month 7-9, In Garden Bed S4 for 8.5 YEARS (Lowe). Planted in 2010.

 

Monrovia: A small evergreen shrub with a dense, naturally globe-shaped growth habit. Rich green needles are arranged in flat layered sprays. The compact form makes this a popular accent plant for mixed borders or containers. A very adaptable, tough, durable plant.

 

Planted in 2010. Plan on trimming lower branches this year, 2016. ~2x1.5 ft, 2016. Planted next to several siberian iris, so it gets dwarfed in the summer.

Thuja occidentalis 'Teddy' (Pierskalla of Bad Berka, Germany 1950s) 2020 photo - Common Name: Dwarf Eastern Arborvitae, Size at 10 years: 1.5x1ft., feathery gray-green, USDA Hardiness Zone 4, In Garden Bed N2,03 for 6.4 YEARS ($6 @ ). Planted in 2013.

 

ACS: Thuja occidentalis 'Teddy' is a dwarf, flattened-globose selection of Eastern arborvitae with dense, delicate, thin branches and feathery, juvenile, green-gray foliage. After 10 years a mature plant will measure 24 inches (60 cm) wide and 12 inches (30 cm) tall, an annual growth rate of around 2 inches (5 cm). Typical of this species, 'Teddy' is a very hardy plant. Please note that the thin, pliable branches tend to flop over in parts of the country where snow and ice are common in winter. It is a good choice for rock gardens and troughs, and can also be used as a substitute for a Boxwood hedge.

 

This cultivar originated as a seedling selected in the 1950s by H. Pierskalla of Bad Berka, Germany. Thuja occidentalis 'Kobold' was the seed parent.

 

A dwarf form of Eastern Arborvitae. Leaves are feathery green-gray and juvenile. Plant grows 2-4 inches a year. Very hardy plant.
