Forever Goldy™ Arborvitae
Forever Goldy Arborvitae is a vibrant evergreen conifer known for its stunning golden-yellow foliage that remains vivid throughout the year. This eye-catching arborvitae offers a compact, upright growth habit, reaching heights of 10 to 12 feet with a width of 3 to 4 feet, making it an excellent choice for vertical accents or as a colorful privacy screen. The foliage of Forever Goldy transitions to a slightly deeper shade in the cooler months, adding seasonal interest and a warm glow to any landscape. Its narrow, columnar form makes it perfect for tight spaces, borders, or mixed plantings, and its year-round color provides a beautiful contrast to other greenery in the garden.
Ideal for USDA hardiness zones 5 through 9, Forever Goldy Arborvitae thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained, moist soil. This hardy tree is highly versatile and can be used as a privacy hedge, focal point, or to add bright contrast in foundation plantings. Unlike many other arborvitae, Forever Goldy maintains its golden hue throughout the year, even in the winter, which makes it an excellent addition to landscapes needing year-round color. It grows at a moderate rate, allowing you to establish a privacy barrier or vertical accent without excessive maintenance. Its pyramidal form provides a tidy, uniform appearance that is easy to maintain, requiring minimal pruning.
In addition to its striking color and form, Forever Goldy Arborvitae is resistant to deer, making it a reliable choice for gardens where browsing is a concern. The dense foliage provides excellent coverage for privacy screens and windbreaks, while its compact size allows it to be planted in rows or as an individual specimen. This low-maintenance conifer requires little care once established; regular watering during the first year helps it settle, and afterward, it will thrive with occasional watering during dry spells. With its vibrant golden color, manageable size, and ease of care, Forever Goldy Arborvitae is a standout choice for enhancing both small and large landscapes alike.
