GEMSTONE HINOKI FALSECYPRESS

Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Gemstone' is commonly referred to as the Gemstone Hinoki Cypress. It is a slow growing, Hinoki Cypress with a narrow, irregular upright form. It has been said to resemble a pointed wizard's hat. It features dense, tightly layered fan foliage in varying shades of green.

The Gemstone Hinoki Cypress enjoys full to part sun in rich, moist, well-drained soils. It is definitely a must-have for conifer connoisseurs.





Planting Tips

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH. Water regularly, but avoid overwatering. Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and promote healthy growth. Consider adding a layer of organic mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
