The new spring growth of Tsuga canadensis ‘Summer Snow’ is white, which produces a striking contrast against the dark green interior foliage on the fast-growing, upright, broad plant. Its size, shape and colorful growth make it an extremely useful highlight for shade gardens. Originally propagated by John Mitsch, Aurora, Oregon, ‘Summer Snow’ is becoming a favorite in gardens everywhere. Shear in spring to encourage color and form. Best in afternoon shade. Garden size is 10' tall and 8' wide. Hardy to Zone 4.
