Chamaecyparis obtusa is commonly referred to as the Hinoki cypress or Japanese cypress. Among its many cultivars, ‘Nana Aurea’ is a slow growing, manageable dwarf evergreen conifer.
‘Nana Aurea’ is known for its dense golden-yellow foliage in concave sprays.
‘Nana Aurea’ grows slowly and is fairly compact in size, reaching 2.5 meters in height.
Like other Chamaecyparis obtusa varieties, ‘Nana Aurea’ likes well-drained soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types as long as they don’t retain excessive moisture. While it thrives in full sun, it also does well in partial shade.
Thanks to its ability to stay fairly small, ‘Nana Aurea’ is a favourite for accentuating rock gardens and borders.
‘Nana Aurea’ rarely requires pruning due to its slow growth rate. Regular watering is essential during its early years and in prolonged dry spells, but it’s essential not to let the plant sit in soggy soil.
Chamaecyparis obtusa ‘Nana Aurea’ is hardy when mature and can withstand cold temperatures down to -20C.
