A truly stunning accent, fall in love with the Gold Mop False Cypress (Chamaecyparis). This beauty features string-like evergreen foliage that ranges from chartreuse green to golden yellow. It grows with a naturally mounding habit that hugs the ground and creates a cloud-like appearance in the landscape. At maturity, it reaches 3-5 ft. tall and 3-5 ft. W. Thanks to a slow-growth habit, maintenance is completely unnecessary. Use this variety as an accent or foundation plant in rock gardens or Asian-inspired landscapes. This brightly colored Chamaecyparis shrub is hardy from USDA Zones 4 to 8 and thrives in Full Sun to part shade. Plant in rich, slightly acidic soil with good drainage and water 2-3 times per week for the first growing season. Fertilize in spring with a slow-release nitrogen-rich fertilizer to promote plant growth. These Gold Mop False Cypress shrubs are well-established in a 2.5 gallon pot and will tend to range from 10 in. to 14 in. tall (foliage weeps over the side of the pot).
