Slow growing, semi dwarf arborvitae - 4 to 6 feet at maturity with a spread of only 3 ft. Has an upright growth habit. Foliage pattern is very similar to Emerald Green Arb., with the base color being a lighter green. The foliage tips are brushed a creamy-white color making this plant look almost variegated. A very unusual, beautiful arborvitae. Excellent as an accent plant. Creamy white accents are most intense during both early spring and throughout the fall seasons.

Cream colored variegation / highlights are very similar to that of Wansdyke Silver - main difference being that the base foliage color is a brighter, medium green on Sherwood Frost....versus the darker deeper green of Wansdyke Silver.
