A new find!

No better place to find a new conifer than in its natural habitat!
On my way up to visit family in Washington last week, I happened upon this gorgeous Thuja plicata that was exceptionally dense and quite narrow.
I call it: Thuja plicata 'Emerald Obelisk'

'Twill be propagated next year. Let me know what you think!

Sam, that looks great!

Looks like it's been sheared by Paul Bunyan instead of being chopped down. :^)

Perfect name too. How tall is it? Any idea of age?

Hey Sam what a nice find on a tree that typically gets way to wide for suburban properties.Did you dive inside to see if its single-trunked?Might be super narrow if kept to one leader.Doug
