Add year-round beauty to your landscape with Little Jamie Atlantic White Cedar, a native dwarf evergreen conifer known for its dense, compact form and unique seasonal color changes. This slow-growing plant features soft, finely textured foliage that remains attractive throughout the year.

In cooler temperatures, the upper foliage develops plum-purple tones while the inner and lower foliage stays green, creating a striking two-tone winter display. Its naturally compact habit makes it ideal for rock gardens, foundation plantings, conifer collections, patio containers, and small-space landscapes.

Native to eastern North America, Little Jamie offers excellent hardiness and adaptability. This low-maintenance evergreen provides structure, texture, and color in every season.

Plants are shipped established in 1 gallon nursery pots, ready to thrive in your landscape.
