Western Snowberry vs Eastern White Cedar (Arborvitae)Symphoricarpus occidentalis Thuja occidentalis SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2019) SOLD OUT 
Like the Common Snowberry, the Western Snowberry is a small shrub with pink flowers useful for feeding livestock and preventing erosion. Unlike the common species, however, the Western Snowberry is much more suited to wet conditions, capable of persevering through poor soil drainage and occasional flooding. Eastern White Cedar is a slender growing conifer often used as a decorative tree or a hedge. This tree is an effective privacy screen even in winter and a great long term solution to urban crowding or a drab yard. WESTERN SNOWBERRY QUICK FACTSEASTERN WHITE CEDAR (ARBORVITAE) QUICK FACTS
