- Season-long color show: sunny yellow spring flush ages to chartreuse-green, then deep gold with glowing orange–russet tips in cold weather.
- Space-smart screen: naturally narrow, upright habit maturing to ~25 ft. tall × ~8 ft. wide.
- Easy-care evergreen—vigorous, waterwise once established, and selected for improved pest and disease resistance.
- Excellent for privacy hedges and windbreaks; bright foliage adds four-season drama to modern and traditional landscapes.
Ember Waves Western Arborvitae (Thuja × ‘MonPin’ PP25,363) brings high-impact color and reliable structure to privacy plantings. New growth glows sunshine yellow before settling to chartreuse-green, then cool weather ignites rich gold with ember‑orange tips—turning a practical screen into a focal-point backdrop. This vigorous, low‑maintenance selection thrives in full sun and evenly moist, well‑drained soils; once established, it’s resilient and fuss‑free, delivering a tall, narrow wall of year‑round texture and color.
Plant Description
A colorful, upright evergreen with a strong central leader and dense, columnar branching. Foliage emerges bright yellow, matures to chartreuse to green, and develops dramatic gold-to-orange tones with cool weather. Ideal as a vivid, living screen or a bold vertical accent.
Foliage & Seasonal Color
Fine, glossy, scale-like sprays: spring flush is sunny yellow; summer settles to chartreuse/bright green; fall and winter shift to deep gold with glowing orange–russet tips for four-season interest.
Sun Requirements
Full sun for best color, density, and vigor (6+ hours of direct light daily).
Watering Needs
Keep evenly moist during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system; thereafter, water when the top 2 inches of soil are dry. Avoid prolonged dryness in exposed sites.
Soil Requirements
Thrives in humus‑rich, evenly moist, well‑drained soils. Mulch the root zone in exposed or cold regions to moderate temperature and conserve moisture; avoid waterlogged conditions.
Growth & Size
Moderate growth to approximately 25 ft. tall and 8 ft. wide at maturity; naturally narrow footprint reduces pruning needs in hedge or corridor plantings.
Hardiness
USDA Zones 5–8; protect from drying winter winds in colder or exposed locations for best foliage quality.
Special Features
Improved pest and disease resistance; waterwise once established; low maintenance; superb color performance; excellent as a privacy screen or windbreak.
Landscape Uses
Tall, narrow hedges and property-line screens; windbreaks; vertical punctuation in mixed borders; high-contrast backdrop for roses, hydrangeas, smoke bush, daylilies, and other flowering companions.
Care Instructions
Plant at or slightly above grade in well‑drained soil. Water deeply and regularly the first season; reduce frequency once established. Feed in early spring. Pruning is seldom needed—lightly trim current season’s growth only if shaping is desired.
History & Parentage
Sport of ‘Green Giant’ (Thuja plicata × standishii) discovered in Dayton, Oregon, selected for exceptional foliage coloration, vigor, and a slightly more compact habit.
