Thuja occidentalis 'Sunkist'
The Sunkist Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis 'Sunkist') is a slow to moderately growing evergreen with a striking upright, pyramidal form. It is best known for its vibrant golden-yellow foliage, which is especially bright in spring and summer and deepens slightly in winter. Reaching a mature height of 6 to 10 feet and a width of 3 to 5 feet, Sunkist performs best in full sun, where its color is most intense. It prefers moist, well-drained soils and offers excellent cold hardiness. Sunkist is ideal for use as a colorful hedge, privacy screen, or eye-catching specimen plant, bringing year-round brightness to the landscape
