Thuja occidentalis ‘Jantar’ is a slender, dense ornamental conifer highly prized for hedges, screens, and landscape structures where strong verticality with minimal lateral spread is desired. Its bright green foliage maintains a vibrant hue year-round, offering a persistent backdrop in Quebec gardens even in winter. ‘Jantar’ combines hardiness, steady growth, and low maintenance, making it a perfect choice for alignments, living fences, privacy screens, or green focal points in residential landscaping. Its naturally conical and well-proportioned habit provides a clean and durable visual structure with minimal upkeep.
