The Rheingold Arborvitae is a dwarf evergreen shrub that is both easy to grow and maintenance free. Its foliage seems to go through several stages of coloration; new growth emerges gold with tinges of red, maturing to a yellow-green in summer, and finally finishing the season with shades of bronze in the winter. Naturally rounded when young, this dense, compact shrub becomes more conical-shaped overtime. Perfect for planting alone or in groups, the Rheingold Arborvitae makes a great choice as a foundation plant, border or as a low hedge.
