Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Remarkably short, dark-green needles are borne on ascending, stout branches on this miniature, upright conifer. Its growth habit and foliage are something very unique, making this a delightful rock garden conifer.
Tiny, short needles are gray-green on this selection of Cyprian cedar. Twiggy upright reaching about a foot high in 10 years would make it a good candidate for bonsai or troughs. Originated at Kenwith Nurseries in England in the early '90's.
Has an irregular form like a windswept tree at the coast. This dwarf conifer has tiny needles. Makes an excellent container plant.
