Pancake Arborvitae is a dense rounded dwarf evergreen shrub with soft lacy scale-like sage green foliage that turns blue in winter

Lily leaf beetles can be an issue

The clusters of inconspicuous flowers in spring need a male pollinator to give way to the heavy clusters of large bright red fruits in fall that lasts through winter

Best color in partial sun and moist well-drained soils
