Complete Product Information for Western Red Cedar (Thuja plicata) Pack of 12 Cell Grown 20-40cm
Our RHS Western Red Cedar (Thuja plicata) cell grown plants are extracted from their cells prior to despatch and are wrapped in protective packaging to ensure the root plug stays moist.

Cell grown Western Red Cedar Conifer (Thuja plicata) is an evergreen conifer, bright green dense foliage with pale green undersurface. Holds colour well in winter.

Evergreen conifer, bright green dense foliage with pale green undersurface. Holds colour well in winter.

An alternative to Leylandii as it is slower growing but still provides a dense, evergreen hedge. The glossy leaves are mid to dark green with a slightly green underside, aromatic when crushed, and hang gracefully in sprays. It can produce small cones. Its average growth rate is 45/60cm and it would be clipped to shape in late summer/early autumn. Western Red Cedar grows in sun or shade and in any well drained soil.

Plant in moist, free-draining soil in any aspect. Needs protection from drying winds, particularly when young. Makes a good hedge.

The plants come with their root systems intact, whereas bare root plants can lose the fine feeding roots and root hairs when they are lifted. This means that cell grown plants can become more quickly established than bare root. Another advantage of cell grown Western Red Cedar is that it can be planted into warm soils when roots are active, outside the dormant period. As long as the roots are kept moist, cell grown plants can be planted throughout the year.
