PARSONS ARBORVITAE DOUGLAS ARBORVITAE GOLDENTIP ARBORVI1 
Thuja occidentalis compacta Thuja occidentalis douglasi (spiralis) Thuja occidentalis elegantiss 
Thuya occidentalis compacta PARSON'S ARBORVITAE 4 feet 
Its compactness makes this small evergreen very suitable for 
low hedges to outline walks or formal gardens. Of course, they 
are always interesting in groups, especially in front of taller 
evergreens. 
Thuya occidentalis douglasi DOUGLAS ARBORVITAE 25 feet 
There is no arborvitae with more handsome foliage and 
shapely pyramidal growth. The dark green, dense foliage is 
bunched and crinkled looking, giving it a sturdy and healthy 
appearance. 
Thuya occidentalis elegantissima 
GOLDENTIP ARBORVITAE 15 feet 
It is so called because the new growth in spring first appears 
as a light golden color and is, of course, unusually attractive. 
Later the branch tops become more green, but still remain in 
marked contrast with the inner foliage. 
Thuya occidentalis globosa 
AMERICAN GLOBE ARBORVITAE 3 feet 
These beautiful dwarf globe forms are frequently noticed as 
entrance markers, either in pots or in the ground. Because of 
their shape, they are extensively planted in many parts of the 
lawn and garden. 
Thuya occidentalis woodwardi 
WOODWARD ARBORVITAE 6 feet 
This is another ball-shaped evergreen, similar to globosa, but 
of finer texture, with a sea green color. It is admirably used in 
many formal garden settings, in foundation plantings and as 
markers at entrances. 
Thuya plicata GIANT ARBORVITAE 20 feet 
The handsomest and largest of arborvitaes comes from the 
western mountains where it has stood the test of severe winters. 
Its lustre-like quality of foliage is retained throughout the year, 
changing from a strong, gray-green in summer, to a green-bronze 
in winter.
