Description
The Arborvitae Mr. Bowling Ball (Thuja occidentalis 'Mr. Bowling Ball') is a compact, naturally rounded evergreen shrub prized for its dense, lacy dark green foliage and excellent year-round color retention. Perfect for small spaces, this dwarf shrub adds elegant greenery to foundation plantings, low hedges, or borders without overwhelming your garden.
Thriving in full sun and USDA Zones 3 to 8, Mr. Bowling Ball prefers well-draining soil and moderate watering when the top couple of inches of soil dry out. Reaching a mature height of just 24 to 30 inches, its globe-shaped form provides visual interest and versatility for landscape designs seeking a tidy, low-maintenance evergreen accent that lasts through every season.
