Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This dwarf form of the majestic giant redwood creates a delightful flattened globe of blue- green needles speckled with white! If left to its own devices, it will eventually develop a leader and slowly grow (about 6 inches a year) to reach up to 25'; if a flattened shape is desired simply prune off the leader. S-PSh/M
