    Dense foliage on an irregular growing upright, highlighted with darker and lighter shades of tightly layered fans. Though its growth habit mentions 2-feet high it may in fact be only one-half that in 10 years as it grows 1-3 inches a year. A seedling selection from 'Nana Gracilis' made by Iseli Nursery in Oregon.
