A brand new, \"extremely slow\" growth rate of only 1\" to 2\" per year. Here at Two Green Thumbs' we love the dwarf Arborvitaes for our miniature gardens and miniature landscapes because they look like a full-sized tree - in miniature. This little Maks really looks like a \"big\" little tree! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePERFECT for the realism which brings the enchantment. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile this variety is new, Arborvitaes are usually very well-behaved and easy to grow. Drought-tolerant in-ground, but still needing water during the dry months. Note that the Maks isn't as hardy as our other Cedars. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are great in containers and the Arborvitaes end-up bonsai-ing themselves naturally.  Just let the soil dry-out to wrung-sponge-damp between waterings, especially in a container. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWinter blush turns a rich bronze color, returning to that deep green as weather warms.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAt 2\", this is the perfect size to start an entirely tiny-scale garden of its own — or to tuck in as a smaller accent layer alongside our 4\" trees, adding depth and variety to your design without crowding it.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight: Full sun to part sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eShape: Upright narrow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrowth rate: 1\"–2\"\/yr\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold hardy to -20°F or Zone 5–7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat zones 7–1\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a young plant and will need a little extra shelter from weather extremes while it gets established.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral Info:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring\/Fall Maintenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clean out the dead leaves inside the shrub when you see it.
