Thuja occidentalis ‘Emerald’ – Root Ball 160–180cm

Slim, Evergreen Hedging with Year-Round Colour and Style

Thuja occidentalis ‘Emerald’, often referred to as Smaragd, is a superb choice for neat, upright hedging. With dense, rich green foliage that holds its colour beautifully through winter, this conical evergreen offers reliable structure and privacy all year round. Supplied in root ball format at 160–180cm tall, it is ideal for creating a formal hedge or screen with minimal trimming required.

Whether you're lining a driveway, defining boundaries, or introducing evergreen structure to a garden design, this medium-tall root ball option strikes a balance between instant impact and manageable size.

Key Features

  • Supplied Height: 160–180cm (excluding root ball)

  • Growth Rate: Moderate – 20–30cm annually

  • Foliage: Glossy emerald-green, soft to the touch

  • Shape: Naturally upright and columnar

  • Spacing for Hedges: Approx. 60–70cm apart

  • Planting Season: Root ball season (Oct–Apr)

Where It Works Best

  • Evergreen privacy hedges or garden screens

  • Low-maintenance structure in formal or modern gardens

  • Year-round colour in narrow or space-conscious borders

  • A stylish alternative to Leylandii or Laurel for tighter spaces

Planting & Aftercare

  • Light: Thrives in full sun to partial shade

  • Soil: Adaptable to most soils; prefers moist, well-drained ground

  • Water: Keep well-watered through the first season

  • Feeding: Mulch in spring and autumn to conserve moisture and feed the roots

  • Pruning: Very little required – trim lightly in late spring if shaping is needed

  • Hardiness: Fully hardy across the UK

Tip: Water thoroughly before and after planting, and firm in well. Add a layer of mulch to insulate roots and suppress weeds.

Why Choose Thuja Emerald Root Ball 160–180cm?

  • Striking upright habit that remains tight and compact

  • Excellent winter colour retention – no bronzing

  • Easy to maintain with just one light trim per year

  • Perfect for medium-height hedging or screening
