An excellent feature plant for a pot, or for adding structural interest to a mixed border. This evergreen dwarf conifer will hold its compact, conical shape well throughout the year and can be planted side by side to create a low screen or hedge. Alternatively, simply use it as a stand-alone feature. - Garden care: Wearing gardening gloves trim in spring and again in late summer.
