Who could possibly not be infatuated with this sensation, this cultivar with rich dark black-green swirls on a compact, relatively slow-growing shrub, but certainly within reason for middle-aged, crisis-laden gardeners, among whose minions I count myself. Planting for the future is just fine, but I would prefer to have it all and have it now. Ultimately to 10 ft. over, letÆs say, 500 years. Full sun, best in draining soil.
This cultivar is distinctive in its swirled, fan-like, deep green foliage and attractive brown twigs, creating a remarkably lovely creature to 6 ft. over time. This was one of the first cultivars of this species that I came to know while gardening in Wenatchee, Washington, and through all the years since, it has remained a favorite and exceptional addition to a mixed border along our upper drive, in full sun and well-drained soil.
Very lovely creamy white variegation throughout the foliage of this dwarf, slow-growing shrublet makes for a distinctive foundation plant with choice, year-round effect. This selection of the Hinoki Cypress will benefit from a semi-shaded position rather than full sun, in well-drained soil. 6 ft. by 5 ft., after a long period.
The slender Hinoki Cypress, with graceful curled sprays of dark green foliage and drooping tips of new growth, is one of the most acceptable relatively fast-growing selections for hedges and screens in the PNW, if not used simply for an exemplary specimen. Full sun or very light shade, in any draining soil, to 15 ft. x 6 ft. in 10 years.
Vivid, sulfur-yellow foliage in elegant swirls, on a very compact upright shrub; this is the golden version of æNanaÆ which will benefit from a somewhat shaded position or its foliage may burn. 3-5 ft. over time. We use this in a small island bed in our back garden where it consorts nicely with the deep glossy greens of Ilex crenata f. watanabeana in summer and winter alike.
An indispensable, beastly good golden rendition of the slender Hinoki which is hardly slender at all, gaining girth with age (as if this doesnÆt happen to us), carrying yellowed foliage along stems rising to 15 ft. tall and spreading to 10 ft., remarkable for winter substance in our semi-shaded arbor bed. On these, we grow Aconitum episcopale, a climbing monkshood, which offers a fine contrast in color amidst the gilded foliage.
