American Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis 'DeGroot's Spire')

Degroot's Spire (not DeGroots Spire) is correct.
From page 382 of The World Checklist of Conifers (Welch and Haddow).

Also see the American Conifer Society site:

@Leftwood, I think you might enjoy this resource:
ENCYCLOPEDIA OF CONIFERS It's a bit out of date as far as species but a nice resource nonetheless.
