Tsuga canadensis ‘Guldemond's Dwarf’

Tsuga canadensis 'Guldemond's Dwarf' is a dense, irregularly pyramidal selection of Canadian hemlock with dark green foliage. After 10 years of growth, a mature specimen will measure 4.5 feet (1.5 m) tall and 3 feet (1m) wide, an annual growth rate of 4 to 6 inches (10 - 15 cm).

This cultivar originated as a seedling selected in the early 1960s by D. Guldemond of Linglestown, Pennsylvania. John Vermeulen nursery of Neshanic Station, New Jersey later introduced it the nursery trade.
