Arborvitae Golden Globe, Thuja occidentalis 'Golden Globe', has a very nice, round, globe shape that doesn't get out of control. The foliage is very dense, with a beautiful golden yellow color on the outside of the plant nice bright green in the interior section. Urn shaped cones, about 12 long, mature in autumn to reddish brown. Golden Glode is most often seen as a 2 to 4 foot high shrub and is a great, carefree choice for accent plantings. When planted close together it makes a nice medium sized hedgeborder. Golden Globe is a plant that will brighten up any landscape. Easily grown in average, medium, well drained soil in full sun to part shade. Foliage density loosens up in too much shade. It tolerates wide range of soils and likes humid weather with regular rains. In hot and dry weather, periodic, deep waterings are advisable. Coloration will darken to bronze just a bit during winter weather but remains quite attractive.
