DESCRIPTION

The Hinoki cypress is both a must-see and a must-have thereafter. Its dark green foliage is tightly congested, forming a tiny mound. It forms twisting fan-shaped branchlets in dense tiered layers.

Want to ask how fast it grows? Well it takes the same time as your partner does getting prepared for a formal evening. You just can’t wait. For this reason we mostly offer older plants where time has done its job, helping this extraordinary dwarf conifer grow to an exquisite specimen.

It needs moist but well-drained soil, no other requirements. No pruning whatsoever. Hardy to min. -29°C (USDA zone 5).
