The Gardener's Notepad

'Morgan' is the hottest little thing you never heard of! Very slow growing, and the color changes every season. Shape is tightly pyramidal/oval. A must have! Found by John Emery of Australia in 1989. It's popularity is increasing, but all too many of the unwashed masses hear the word "arborvitae" and their eyes glaze over. Reasons behind this behavior are understandable, but still inexcusable.
