Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This EXtremely narrow (not much wider than a broomstick!) conifer has graceful streamers of dark-green hanging directly down... an eye-catching vertical accent or conifer for a very narrow space; to 8' in 10 years. S-PSh/M
Chamaecyparis nootkatensis ' Strict Weeping '- The foliage on this tall, extremely narrow Weeping Alaskan Cedar boasts an uncommonly pendulous habit. The draping foliage hangs down, clasped tightly against the upright trunk, like arms. Mature trees develop fascinating character, almost personalities, with secondary sub-leaders that reach out and create a close-knit cluster of trunks and gracefully arching side branches.
