Thuja plicata 'Whipcord' - Western Red Cedar

This is added as a point of interest. It is a cultivar of the Western Red Cedar - the standard variety of which can reach 200' tall. This cultivar, however, will not grow taller than 5'. Thuja plicata 'Whipcord' is a shrubby, slow-growing, dwarf form of western red-cedar that grows with pendulous whipcord-like green foliage which droops from branchlets rising upward, fountain-like, from the center before arching downward. It is a speciman planting and is included in this tour only as a side-note of interest.
