Atrovirens Western Red Cedar (Thuja plicata 'Atrovirens')

Atrovirens Western Red Cedar is a strong, dark-green evergreen that quickly adds privacy and structure without looking bulky or messy. It grows into a tall, narrow pyramid that works as a living wall, a wind buffer, or a clean vertical accent in larger beds. Compared with many arborvitae, it tends to hold its rich color well and keeps a full, dense look when given enough light and moisture. If you want a dependable screen that still feels natural and classic, this tree delivers year-round coverage with a straightforward care routine.

Distinctive Features

This western red cedar selection is valued for glossy, deep green, scale-like foliage and a vigorous, pyramidal habit that can be maintained as a tall hedge. The foliage may look a bit less green in winter, but it remains an evergreen presence with strong texture and density. Mature plants develop an impressive, architectural silhouette, often reaching about 30 to 45 feet tall and roughly 10 to 15 feet wide when untrimmed. Small cones can appear, but the main appeal is the dark color, fast coverage, and reliable screening performance.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Full sun to part shade, with the densest growth typically in brighter exposures.
  • Soil: Moist, well-drained soil is best, and it adapts to many soil types if drainage is reasonable.
  • Water: Provide regular water during establishment, then water during extended dry spells to keep foliage full.
  • USDA Zones: 5 to 7.
  • Site: Choose a spot with room for height and airflow, and avoid hot, reflected-heat locations that dry the root zone.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use one specimen to create a tall evergreen focal point with a clean pyramidal outline and dark, polished color.
  • Screening: Plant in rows for a fast, dense privacy screen that can be left natural or maintained as a hedge.
  • Windbreak: Establish along exposed edges to reduce wind and create calmer garden spaces behind it.
  • Property Line: Define boundaries with a living wall that looks consistent through every season.
  • Backdrop Planting: Set behind mixed borders to make flowers and lighter foliage colors stand out more.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Pruning: Shear or lightly trim in late spring to early summer if shaping is needed, and avoid cutting back into bare, leafless wood.
  • Mulching: Mulch the root zone to conserve moisture and moderate soil temperatures, keeping mulch off the trunk.
  • Watering: Deeply water during drought, especially for hedges where roots compete closely.
  • Fertilizing: Feed in spring only if growth is weak, using a slow-release evergreen fertilizer according to label directions.
  • Winter Care: In snowy areas, gently remove heavy, wet snow to reduce branch splay and preserve form.

Why Choose Atrovirens Western Red Cedar?

  • Fast Coverage: Produces quick height and density for privacy and wind protection.
  • Dark Green Color: Brings a richer evergreen tone that pairs well with lighter conifers and flowering shrubs.
  • Hedge Friendly: Responds well to pruning, making it easy to maintain as a tall, formal screen.
  • Some Deer Resistance: Often less preferred than many common arborvitae, though protection can still be wise where browsing pressure is high.
  • Four-Season Structure: Holds its shape and screening value year-round, anchoring the landscape in every season.

For big impact in the form of privacy, shelter, and year-round structure, Atrovirens Western Red Cedar is a practical evergreen you can build a landscape around. Start it with consistent moisture and good spacing, and it will reward you with dense growth and a strong, finished look. Left natural it becomes a stately pyramid, and with regular trimming it can serve as a clean, uniform hedge. Either way, it creates a confident green backdrop that makes the rest of the garden feel more intentional.

No.
Color: Coal Black, Color: Coal Black
This was horribly made and a nightmare to put together. You have to basically bend the bars to get the coverings attached. The sizes don't match. The stickers that label the parts are impossible to remove and if you do get them off theres a lot of residue left behind. On top of that once it was put together I noticed theres a big dirty foot print on it which is definitely not mine.

You have to add weight to it
Color: Coal Black
It does its job and it was easy to put together but it's a little on the flimsy side and it will easily be knocked down. So you're going to have to figure out a way to make the legs heavier? I used cinder blocks, single cinder blocks and it works just fine. Just know that it will knock over super easy

I have 2!
Color: Coal Black
My office is in my loft. But there are things along the wall I don’t want to look at. These work great. Hides what I don’t want to see & is a classy look in the room. Sturdy, easy to assemble, well made.

Works as expected for it's intended purpose.
Color: Black, Size: Upgraded Base-1 Panel
This room divider was easy to put together and is sturdy enough so it wont tip over if it's bumped. Included instructions weren't very clear and some parts weren't labeled, but once you figure out how to put it together it works as expected. The material is a bit wrinkled so if that is a concern you can iron it prior to installation. The size is fine for a smaller room and the thickness of the material is fine for it's intended use.
