Black Cedar

Thuja occidentalis 'Nigra,' commonly known as the American Arborvitae 'Nigra,' is a hardy evergreen shrub that thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It requires regular watering, especially during dry spells, to establish deep roots. Prune as needed to maintain its desired shape and remove any dead branches. 'Nigra' is prized for its dense, dark green foliage, which adds an elegant touch to hedges, screens, or as a specimen plant. It is also known for its natural resistance to deer browsing, making it a valuable addition to landscapes in deer-prone areas.

Planting trees or plants is easy! First, begin by digging a hole that's twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Place the tree or plant in the hole and add some bonemeal fertilizer. Backfill with fresh soil if needed and water thoroughly. Water regularly until roots are established to keep the plant healthy. Enjoy your new tree or plant!
