Hi, welcome to this edition of Growing Wisdom. What do you got here today? We have got a Chamaecyparis or a False Cypress and this particular one Nana Lutea is going to stay really small, that is what great about this and we got four interesting conifers for you. Conifers of course stay evergreen and some of you think of conifers as just green, you know you got typical pines and things like that but these are all unique for different reasons mostly for their color.
So, the second one we want to talk about is this little guy here and this is a Pinus strobus Louie and what is great about Louie is just how yellow he is and he will stay yellow. Now, the this would get to be the size of a full white pine but this is not a typical white pine because of the needles staying yellow as they will do with Louie. Just a beautiful specimen, all of these need full sun so that is the key with this.
Now the next one we got here is Cedrus deodora ‘silver mist’ and I love this. Take a look at this color. The color is spectacular and you can see just how beautiful almost like a lime green or yellow this is, just a wonderful color and this will stay fairly small. So, this should be nice in the small area that will not get that big and has almost a weeping texture to it, so look for this particular one again it is silver mist. A little bit hardier than some of the other Cedruses.
Now our final one are a little stuart today of evergreens is the Pinus parviflora ‘select’ and it is called the select because they actually have not given this one a name yet. Again, this looks to be that this will get fairly tall and upright. One of the reasons we know that is because if we look at the growth over the past year, you can see that it is growing very straight. It is not getting very wide but it has this great blue color and when you compare it you can really see the blue color when you compare it to the yellow. So four unique conifers for you to choose from, one would get really big, the other staying a little bit smaller and these particulars one is staying fairly narrow.
Lots to talk about here in growingwisdom.com, come back every week for all of our tips.
