THUJA PLI EXCELSA
Grower Notes:

Thuja plicata 'Excelsa' is commonly referred to as Excelsa Western Red Cedar or Excelsa Arborvitae. It is a fast-growing, upright open-branched evergreen with a pyramidal crown that becomes more conical as it matures. This vigorous grower can reach 30 feet tall with a 12 foot spread and features bright green fan-like fragrant foliage and reddish-brown, fibrous bark.

Excelsa Western Red Cedar thrives in full to partial sun in moist, well-drained soils. It can tolerate wet soils. It is ideal as a vertical accent, windbreak, hedge or privacy screen.
