Forming a dense cone of blue-green foliage that is arranged in fan-like sprays on the branches, this popular conifer is holder of a well-deserved AGM, which is only awarded to plants that have been judged by the RHS to be great garden performers.
Chamaecyparis lawsoniana 'Minima Glauca' makes a great candidtae for a pot on the patio, while in the border it will offer year round interest.
How to care for Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Minima Glauca:
Plant slow-growing, dwarf Chamaecyparis cultivars in moist, well-drained soil in full sun or light shade, and avoid waterlogged conditions. In late winter, apply a generous mulch of compost or bark around the base, keeping it clear of the crown to prevent rot.
These plants need little to no pruning, but any uneven or wayward shoots that spoil the shape can be trimmed back in autumn to maintain a neat, symmetrical form.
