Description
Arborvitae, Woodward Globe is a compact, round evergreen featuring soft, fan-like foliage that remains a vibrant green throughout the growing season. In colder climates, the foliage may take on a subtle bronze tint in the winter, adding seasonal interest. Ideal for low-maintenance hedges, foundation plantings, or focal accents, its naturally globe-shaped form provides year-round structure and eye-catching appeal without extensive pruning.
General Care
- Sunlight: Prefers at least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth.
- Soil: Thrives in moist, well-drained, fertile soil but adapts to a range of soil types.
- Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish strong roots. Once established, water as needed during extended dry periods.
- Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch around the base to help retain moisture and moderate soil temperature. Keep mulch slightly away from the trunk.
- Pruning: Minimal pruning required; if necessary, shape lightly in late spring or early summer to maintain its tidy, rounded appearance.
