Thuja plicata 'Whipcord'
Thuja plicata 'Whipcord' is similar in general appearance to Thuja occidentalis 'Filiformis', with its leaves reduced to scaly lizards tails. Unlike the species, which is a giant forest tree, the many branches seem to explode upward and send sparks cascading in all directions. Green in summer, the foliage changes to bronze in winter, matching the richly colored wood. Every garden can accommodate the small, dynamic conifer.
