    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This weeping redwood will get to 18”x72” wide. The flat needles are distinctive. Makes a wonderful small weeping ground cover. Doesn't need to be pruned to keep under control.

    By: Gossler Farms

    Truly a flat-growing selection of the species. Rarely reverts and throws an upright leader. Grows about 6 inches a year.

    By: Bloom River Gardens

    A flat growing form of the Costal Redwood, considerably hardier than you would think, especially in areas with good snow cover, this would be much more popular if it wasn't such a bitch to root.
