Tsuga canadensis 'Golden Splendor'

Tsuga canadensis ‘Golden Splendor’, commonly known as Canadian Hemlock ‘Golden Splendor’, is an evergreen conifer with a dense, flexible pyramidal habit, prized for its luminous golden foliage. Its fine needles, a tender green broadly tinged with golden yellow, particularly light up in spring on the new shoots, then retain a beautiful warm hue throughout the season. Its elegant silhouette, with slightly drooping branches, adds texture and softness to plantings as a specimen, in a natural hedge, or in light undergrowth. Tolerating partial shade well, it prefers cool, rich, well-drained, slightly acidic soils. Tsuga canadensis ‘Golden Splendor’ offers year-round ornamental interest thanks to its evergreen foliage and vibrant coloring, while retaining the characteristic hardiness of the species in cold climates.
