2.5 qt. Highlights Arborvitae (Thuja) Live Conifer Evergreen Tree, Yellow and Green Foliage

Highlights Arborvitae is a vibrant evergreen shrub with bright golden foliage that adds year-round color and structure to the landscape. Its naturally upright, pyramidal shape makes it ideal for borders, privacy screens, foundation plantings, or as a stand-alone accent in garden beds. Unlike traditional arborvitae, Highlights offers striking golden tones that hold their color throughout the growing season, softening slightly in winter for added seasonal interest. This versatile shrub is deer-resistant, low-maintenance, and adaptable to a variety of soil types, making it a great choice for beginner and experienced gardeners alike. Plant in full sun to part shade in well-drained soil for best performance. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Once established, it is moderately drought-tolerant. Prune lightly in early spring if shaping is needed. Hardy in USDA Zones 5-8, Highlights Arborvitae typically matures to 8-10 ft. tall and 3-4 ft. wide, making it an excellent choice for both compact spaces and larger garden designs.
