The shoots of this decorative evergreen are encased with twisted and curved needle-like leaves, which form in a distinctive spiral pattern that gives them a tassel-like appearance. In time, this slow-growing conifer will form a large shrub, offering year-round interest with the minimum amount of fuss. - Garden care: Remove any competing leaders that appear in spring, and at the same time, cut out any weak or misshapen shoots.
