Thuja are vibrant conifers that are densely packed with scale-like leaves. Thuja have flat sprays of foliage that come in a range of colours depending on the variety; they are a great choice for adding year round colour to a rockery or for lining a path. As long as the soil is well-drained you can plant thuja in most soil types and they will thrive.
