Supposedly rated as Zone 5a. Without protection in Zone 5a this species can/will get winter burn and even losses.

Grafts to Thuja occidentalis and Platycladus orientalis/Thuja orientalis (Both synonyms for Oriental Arborvitae) and when grafted to either of these understocks/rootstocks, it can be grown in clay soil whereas a rooted cutting (on its own roots) cannot tolerate the clay.
