Hinoki Cypress
Zone: 5-8
4´ @ 10 years
3"-6" /year
Upright, narrow - partial shade
This rare and unique variety has dark green, fan-shaped foliage characteristic hinokis, but instead of reaching straight for the sky, its branches take an upward and outward corkscrew spiral-type route. ´With a growth rate suitable for even small and medium sized garden areas, ´Spiralis´ is sure to be a topic of conversation by friends and visitors. Those in warmer climates should plan on positioning all of our hinokis where they will be protected from the intense afternoon rays of the sun.
