Interesting Notes about Arborvitae:

Arborvitae is a versatile group of plants with evergreen, glossy foliage that thrive in most soils as long as they are well-drained. There are various forms from tall and upright to low and mounded with sizes that fit just about any purpose in the landscape. In harsh winter winds the foliage may show signs of winter burn, and they are susceptible to damage from snow load.
