Thuja plicata 'Whipcord'
Thuja 'Whipcord' is a distinctive dwarf evergreen Conifer with glossy, cord-like green foliage that cascades gracefully from a central mound. Its unusual braided texture and natural weeping habit create an elegant, sculptural form that adds movement and contrast to borders, rockeries, or containers. In winter, the foliage develops warm bronze tones, providing extra seasonal interest.
Compact, hardy, and low-maintenance, ‘Whipcord’ thrives in full sun or partial shade and well-drained soil. Its unique form and year-round appeal make it an excellent choice for adding texture and structure to small gardens or mixed conifer plantings.
