The Amber Gold Arborvitae is a cultivar of the Eastern White Cedar that has high ornamental value. Its scale-like foliage emerges yellow, darkens to green in summer, then turns an attractive orange-gold. This tree is an effective privacy screen even in winter and is a great addition to urban gardens.
The fall and winter colour on this tree is an amber-orange giving the Amber Gold Arborvitae its name.
The Rocky Mountain Juniper is a columnar and slightly rounded evergreen shrub that features foliage with colours that range from a light green to a dark blue-green. It produces round, dark-blue berry-like cones that ripen in the second year.
Rocky Mountain Junipers have great ornamental value due to its varying colours and can attract wildlife into your yard as the “berries” are favored by birds.
