The Western Red Cedar ‘Rogersii’ *Thuja plicata* is a beautiful evergreen that adds charm to gardens with its distinctive golden-yellow foliage. This compact cultivar differs from the main species by staying smaller, which makes it perfect for limited spaces or creating attractive hedging. The aromatic, scale-like leaves form flat sprays that release a lovely scent when touched.
‘Rogersii’ naturally develops into a tidy pyramidal form with minimal pruning needed, making it ideal for gardeners who want something attractive without the fuss. This robust tree handles British weather well, coping with both wet winters and dry summers. Originally from North America, where native communities have treasured it for generations, this cedar works brilliantly as a backdrop for colourful flowers, privacy screening, or as a feature tree on its own. Its thick foliage provides shelter for birds, bringing wildlife into your garden. The bright golden colour of ‘Rogersii’ can lift darker areas or provide lovely contrast alongside other evergreens.
This reliable tree maintains its good looks throughout the seasons with very little maintenance required.
Western Red Cedar ‘Rogersii’ is a versatile tree that adapts to various conditions in UK gardens. It prefers full sun to partial shade and thrives in moist, well-drained soil. However, it’s quite tolerant and can cope with different soil types, including clay. When planting, ensure good drainage and add organic matter to the soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a strong root system. Once established, it’s fairly drought-tolerant but appreciates occasional deep watering during dry spells. Mulching around the base helps retain moisture and suppress weeds. This cedar doesn’t require regular pruning, but you can trim it lightly in late spring or early summer to maintain shape if desired. With its easy-going nature, ‘Rogersii’ is a great choice for gardeners looking for a low-maintenance, attractive evergreen.
