Little Markey Hinoki Cypress

Chamaecyparis obtusa ‘Little Markey’ 

A bright focal point in the garden with its striking architectural form and golden color. Chamaecyparis obtusa ‘Little Markey’ has similar sculptural qualities to C.o. ‘Spiralis’ but illuminates the garden with its tight, congested fans of vibrant foliage. Little Markey Hinoki Cypress is more colorful in exposed locations but also does well in filtered light. Moist, well-drained soil is a must.

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.
