    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Low-growing, evergreen conifer, to 1-2' tall x 5-6' wide, with fat needle-like leaves surrounding the stem in a spiral. This form was shared with us by our friends at Woodlanders Nursery, having been found originally at Tom Dodd Nurseries in Alabama. So it's already traveled far and wide. A great groundcover shrub for dappled shade or light shade in rich soil with average summer water. Frost hardy to 10 °F, USDA zone 8.
