  • Description

  • Notes

A lovely evergreen shrub for screening or accent. It forms an open-branched, pyramidal form with gracefully arching branchlets, giving it an overall draped effect. Tiny needles are deep green, with new growth having a slight reddish tinge. In winter, color can take on a bronze hue.
