But the first thing you need to do is choose the right variety of thuja that is suitable for growing in pots.
What kind of thuja can be grown in a pot

These requirements are met by the varieties of western thuja with its small root system. It grows well in a limited space.
Thuja occidentalis Danica
This thuja is a dwarf and reaches 60 cm in height. Its crown is spherical and dense. All of the above makes Danica an ideal candidate for growing in pots.

Another dwarf spherical thuja - although its height is somewhat higher than the previous one: Little Tim can grow up to 80 cm in height.
Thuja occidentalis Miriam
This variety has golden-yellow needles and reaches a height of up to 100 cm. Miriam is perfect for growing in a pot and can thus take on the role of a bright accent in the interior.
