Thuja Occidentalis Mirjam or Northern White Cedar Miriam
Thuja Occidentalis are evergreen conifers that are native to the North East coast of North America, hence their common name: Northern White Cedar. These conifers occur naturally in areas from Nova Scotia all the way down to Tennessee, so they are perfectly adapted both to continental and moderate climate. The variety Thuja Occidentalis Mirjam is a dwarf conifer shrub with a beautiful rounded dome shape and vibrant foliage. The new growth is golden orange, with striking bright yellow foliage in the spring and yellow-green summer foliage. When the temperatures drop in the winter, the soft-textured needles take on bronze hues. It was discovered in 1997 in a Dutch nursery, as a sport of Thuja Occidentalis Danica, another dwarf globous conifer.
In addition to its ornamental interest, Northern White Cedar Miriam is an all-around great performer in the garden. A testament to its resilience and other great qualities is the Award of Garden Merit this cultivar received from the Royal Horticultural Society.
