Sting Arborvitae

Sting Arborvitae
(Thuja occidentalis 'Sting')

Sleek, narrow, and elegant, Sting Arborvitae is a standout evergreen that brings strong vertical interest to any landscape. With its naturally tight, columnar form and rich green foliage that holds color year-round, this unique arborvitae is perfect for adding structure to small spaces, framing entryways, or planting as a stylish hedge or screen. Unlike traditional arborvitae, Sting™ maintains a slender silhouette without the need for heavy pruning, making it a fantastic low-maintenance choice for modern landscapes.

Key Features:

• Slender, Columnar Form: Grows in a tight, upright habit—ideal for narrow spaces and vertical accents.

• Evergreen Foliage: Dense, rich green needles offer year-round color and texture.

• Compact Size: Reaches 6–12 feet tall and only 1–2 feet wide—perfect for tight planting areas.

• Low Maintenance: Requires little to no pruning to keep its tidy form.

• Cold Hardy: Thrives in a wide range of climates and performs well in northern zones.

• Deer Resistant: Less attractive to browsing wildlife compared to other arborvitae varieties.

Care Tips:

• Plant in well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade.

• Water regularly during establishment, then moderately as needed.

• Apply mulch to retain soil moisture and protect roots.

• Minimal pruning required—just remove any damaged or stray branches in early spring.
