Emerald green arborvitae is best planted in the fall when it will experience minimal heat stress. Its foliage consists of flat sprays of glossy bright green needles, plus urn-shaped cones about an inch long that turn reddish-brown in the fall. Most specimens grow at a fast rate early on and slow down as the tree matures, reaching 7 to 15 feet high, and possibly reaching 20 feet. Occasionally, this plant is pruned to form spiral topiaries.
