Planet Earth Arborvitae is a compact evergreen shrub with a dense, naturally rounded habit and flat splays of fern-like foliage that earns bronze hues in colder climates. Best grown full sun and well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established. Planet Earth can take both southern heat and northern cold without leaf burn and has resistance to needle blight.
