When such a useful plant is also colorful and interesting all year round, it is a real find for any garden. Add that it also survives in even the coldest areas of the country and now you have the perfect choice. The Fire Chief Arborvitae is such a plant – tough, hardy, evergreen, always neat and round, never too big, but best of all, covered all year in a fascinating glow of bronzy-red, which intensifies and reddens more as the cooler weather of fall arrives. This novel new color in Arborvitae, which are normally green, or sometimes yellow, adds a great sparkle to your planting, without adding any work. It will grow steadily into a globe two feet across and the same width, and eventually into a plant perhaps 4 feet by 4 feet. It is the idea size to fit perfectly into any part of your garden.
This variety of arborvitae is hardy in even the coldest parts of America, and it can be planted in a sunny location in ordinary garden soil. Like all arborvitae, it benefits from a regular supply of water, but once established plants are resistant to ordinary summer dryness, so they need no extra work.
