ʻO ka nunui (a i ʻole nā pua paha thuja) he lāʻau nui (ma kahi o 60 m ākea ākea a me 16-12 m i kanu ʻia), me kahi pua ʻulaʻula a me kahi lei maikaʻi. I nā hau maloʻo, ua ulu ka mea i kanu ʻia i ka hau. Ma Moscow he manaʻo hoʻohālikelike o ka puʻu kahi i hiki aku ai i kahi mika he 2,3 mika i ke kiʻekiʻe o ka makahiki 16 a loaʻa iā ia ka palena o ka lei he 1.5 mika.
Hoʻonohonoho ʻia nā ʻōpū o ke kuʻuna o ka arborvitae i ke anuanu, he mau lālā liʻiliʻi he "drooping" aʻo, ʻano pū. ʻO ka thuja i hoʻopuni ʻia, ʻaʻole like me ka ʻaoʻao komohana, he mau ʻoliki nā ʻaoʻao - ma kahi ākea 1 mm ākea, a ulu nui aʻe - e ulu ana kēlā me kēia cm ma ka pana mai 8 a 10 mau puaʻa. Loaʻa nā ʻāpana o nā keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo i nā ʻōpū o lalo. Ua waiho ʻia nā lau ma nā lewa ma kekahi, ma kēlā me kēia - me nā lehe kūlima a me nā kihi kūpono. ʻO ka thuja he 10-12 mm oblong cones con flakes me recesses ma luna, kōwele a me nā pālepa.
ʻO ka ʻāina i loaʻa i ka thuja giant is the wetlands on the Pacific Pacific of North America. E hōʻiliʻili iā ia mai ka makahiki 1853. Aia ma kahi o 50 mau ʻano o ka pua thuja: Zebrina, Whipcord, a me nā mea ʻē a mākou e ʻike pinepine ʻole ai.
Thuja Whipcord - He lima thuf hii kēia e pili ana 1,5 mau kiʻekiʻe. ʻO kēlā me kēia makahiki, hoʻonui ʻo ia i ka ulu e 7-10 cm. He spherical ka lāʻau, me ka lōʻihi (nūnū) hoʻi i nā ʻanuʻu "drooping", kahi i hoʻopiha nui ʻia. Hoʻopili ʻia nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo, papi, ʻōmaʻomaʻo ia i ke kauwela a “keleawe” i ka wā o ka frosts.
Thuja Zebrina (Aureovariegata) - bred i ka makahiki 1868. ʻAʻole e like me ka nahelehele, ulu nui ka ulu. Ma 24 mau makahiki, hiki iā ia wale nō ma kahi o 3 mika ke kiʻekiʻe. Pāpono ka lei a me ka haʻahaʻa, nā lālā ākea nui me nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo "drooping". Loaʻa nā ʻōpio'ōpiopio i kahi kaila paʻi kolo, i lilo i ka wīwī i ka pūnāwai.
