Fire Chief TM – PP191009
A branch Sport of Thuga occidentalis ‘Rheingold’ Fire Chief’s very distinctive and striking color shifts set it apart among other compact evergreens. Intense fine textured gold foliage brightens the rounded, near perfect globe-shaped evergreen shrub in both winter and spring. Summertime brings gentle hues of orange to the growing tips of fine foliage, which then deepens to red -brown in autumn.
While suitable for Full sun to Part Shade conditions it appreciates light afternoon shade and does particularly well in a spot where it will not be buffeted by winds. Slow growing to approximately 2 to 4 feet tall and wide, the shrub is low maintenance, not fussy as to soil type, and will maintain its rounded globe shape without pruning.
A perfect option for massing in a landscape foundation, in a mixed bed, for borders, as a rock garden specimen or combined with other dwarf conifers.
