Minima Aurea Lawson’s Cypress

This dwarf Lawson’s cypress has flat, ascending sprays of foliage that glow with brilliant yellow. The golden color is most intense where the feathery foliage gets the most sun, creating a unique optical effect, and the dense branching gives it soft, ruffled texture and a full, conical habit. Moist, well-drained soil is a must. Raised as a seedling in the 1920s at W. H. Rogers Red Lodge Nursery in Great Britain.
