White Cedar Golden Tuffet

A slow growing evergreen conifer, Thuja occidentalis ‘Golden Tuffet’ forms a mound of foliage that is wider than it is high. White Cedar ‘Golden Tuffet’ has scale-like leaves which are a fresh, yellow-green colour in the Spring and then mature to a golden-orange. When crushed, the foliage has a fresh apple-like scent. ‘Golden Tuffet’ is a dwarf conifer that makes a neat cushion of gold foliage for an alpine or patio garden and provides amazing colour contrast throughout the year.
