Emerald Petite Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis 'Emerald Petite') is a charming, compact evergreen shrub that delivers elegant structure and year-round color to any landscape. A dwarf form of the popular Emerald Green Arborvitae, Emerald Petite grows slowly to a mature height of just 4 to 6 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet wide, making it perfect for tight spaces, low hedges, foundation plantings, and formal garden designs. Its dense, bright green foliage maintains its vibrant color even through the winter months, providing reliable visual interest in all seasons. This cold-hardy, low-maintenance conifer thrives in full sun to partial shade and adapts well to a variety of well-drained soils. Emerald Petite Arborvitae is an excellent option for creating small-scale privacy screens or neat vertical accents in landscape beds. Its naturally narrow, pyramidal habit requires little pruning to maintain its tidy form, making it ideal for homeowners who want a structured, easy-care evergreen. It’s also tolerant of urban conditions, including air pollution, which makes it a smart choice for both suburban yards and city gardens. Whether you’re edging a walkway, creating a backdrop for flowering perennials, or looking for a petite evergreen for a patio container, Emerald Petite Arborvitae offers classic beauty in a scaled-down size. Its refined appearance and dependable performance make it a standout addition to any formal or contemporary landscape. Plant it in rows for a polished hedge or use it as a solo specimen to highlight its symmetrical form—either way, this compact arborvitae brings lasting structure and lush greenery to your outdoor space.
