Mini Golden Dwarf Hinoki Cypress — Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Nana Lutea'

A charmer for the miniature garden and a long-time favorite. Golden-yellow-green tips darken to green toward the trunk — a built-in color gradient that adds drama right where you want it. Keep it in full sun for the most vibrant color. 

At 2", this is the perfect size to start an entirely tiny-scale garden of its own — or to tuck in as a smaller accent layer alongside our 4" trees, adding depth and variety to your design without crowding it.

• Light: Full sun to part sun
• Very rich green color in winter
  
  
• Growth rate: 2"–4"/yr
• Shape: Upright broad
• Cold hardy Zone 4–8 or -30°F
• Heat zones 8–1
  

This is a young plant and will need a little extra shelter from weather extremes while it gets established.

General Info:

• Spring/Fall Maintenance: Clean out the dead leaves inside the shrub when you see it. Called 'conifer dieback.'
• While they're young, avoid hot summer afternoon sun
• Let container soil dry out to barely damp in between watering
• An outdoor plant
