The Gardener's Notepad
This is one of the few Lawson Cypress that will put up with our climate in the East/Northeast, and the ones we offer are grafted onto disease resistant root stock. The overall appearance of Golden King is more pendulous than that of the average Hinoki Cypress, and the color is refreshingly different as well. Expect a height of 20 ft. in about that many years. These work very well with other conifers or with herbaceous foliage.
