By: Forestfarm

A most unique, slow growing (3-4" a year) semi-dwarf form with blue and green foliage that takes on bronzy highlights in winter. Mostly soft, light blue-green juvenile foliage (like adult Chamaecyparis obtusa foliage) but the mature foliage looks like the soft juvenile foliage of a Juniper! And both juvenile and mature foliage appear on the plant simultaneously. Formerly called 'Sanderi'.
