Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A favorite for a exquisite winter show, the lovely feathery foliage of this medium-sized conifer is a pale sage-green that looks wonderful planted against a dark background; growing to 20-30' tall and only 8-12' wide this is a great a heat and drought-tolerant almost-native hedge, windbreak or stand-alone specimen.
