Cumulus Sawara Cypress

Chamaecyparis pisifera ‘Cumulus’

Tufts of needle-like, juvenile foliage give this rounded, bluish green selection its airy character, even when mature. Reminiscent of puffy clouds, the delicate choice adds a reliable element of soft texture to any miniature garden spaces. Cumulus Sawara Cypress stays small without pruning and its foliage is most dense when grown in full sun. Particularly useful for bonsai or rock gardens. A fun choice for miniature topiary.

Many perennials and bonsai plants will have a ‘winter look’ that differs from how they look when actively growing.  Colder temperatures and short days alter the appearance of these plants as they go thru seasonal changes.  Some plants require this reboot to bloom and/or perform at their best during the growing season.  Plants may remain semi-dormant until early spring.  Rest assured that these cosmetic changes do not adversely affect the health of your plant.
