Latin Name: Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Nana Gracilis'

Description: A highly valued dwarf conifer, the Dwarf Hinoki Cypress is a very slow-growing evergreen that forms a dense shrub-like habit when young, becoming more cone-shaped as it matures. It showcases short, flat, shell-like fans of lush, scale-like, glossy dark green foliage. It also provides small, female cones that emerge green and turn reddish-brown as they age. Sometimes seen sold as a standard tree. A perfect evergreen filler for sunny borders, rock gardens, and all season interest!
