Northern White-Cedar (Arborvitae 2)

A curse word ‘round these parts, the Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis) is not a species in itself, but a cultivar of the great Northern white-cedar, a majestic and hearty tree of the North of America. This beauty can be found growing on the roughest terrain of the Niagara escarpment, so why do we plant it as a middling hedge and street tree in other parts of the country? Then, we undergo a massive rebrand of this stolen valor Tree of Life.
