Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Lush, dark-green foliage forms a dense mound on this slow-growing cedar. The prickly needles give the impression of a hedgehog. A very apt name for a very unique dwarf conifer.

By: Conifer Kingdom

A miniature form of Lebanon cedar with long blue-green needles densely packed along the branches. Should be considered one of the slowest forms as the larger plant listed is about 25 years old. A very choice selection and not readily available.
