Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This pyramidal, pendulous tree has graceful foliage with creamy-yellow foliage distributed throughout. A beautiful form and coloration on this rare selection from Poland! This species was formerly and is still commonly thought to be in the Chamaecyparis genus. However, it readily hybridizes with other species of Cupressus and bears many similarities, so it is now taxonomically classified as a species of Cupressus. In the past, it was also known as Xanthocyparis nootkatensis and Callitropsis nootkatensis.
