🌍 Ideal Growing Conditions for Thuja Trees

1. Climate & Sunlight

• Thrives in temperate to subtropical climates (grows well in Kenyan highlands & mid-altitude regions).
• Prefers full sun (6+ hours daily) but tolerates partial shade.
• Withstands light frost but young seedlings need protection.

2. Soil Requirements

• Well-draining loamy or sandy soil (avoid waterlogged clay).
• Slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.5) – Test soil before planting.
• Enrich with compost or manure for faster growth.

3. Watering Needs

• Regular watering in the first year (keep soil moist but not soggy).
• Deep watering 2-3 times a week (encourages deep roots).
• Drought-resistant once mature (reduce watering frequency).
