Naturehills.com carries thousands of products including the Arborvitae - Nigra
from the Trees family.
The Nigra Arborvitae, Thuja occidentalis 'Nigra', is one of the busy varieties for cold climates. Unlike some evergreens, 'Nigra' will keep its dark green color all winter long. Scale-like leaves are ovate, mid to dark-green on top, lighter beneath. Females bear small cones with a small terminal hook on each scale. This low maintenance arborvitae needs full sun to partial shade and prefers sandy loam to clay loam. Useful as a specimen, accent, windscreen, or commonly used in foundation plantings. Makes one of the finest year-round hedges that forms a natural fence around your home.
