CHAMAECYPARIS OBTUSA ‘NANA LUTEA’ / GOLDEN DWARF HINOKI FALSECYPRESS
Compact, Golden Foliage for Year-Round Color
Chamaecyparis obtusa ‘Nana Lutea,’ commonly known as Golden Dwarf Hinoki Falsecypress, is a slow-growing, compact evergreen prized for its stunning golden-yellow foliage and soft, fan-like texture. This eye-catching conifer adds bright color to landscapes throughout all seasons, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, borders, or container plantings. With its naturally rounded, sculpted form, ‘Nana Lutea’ provides an elegant and low-maintenance focal point in any garden.

Care Instructions
Different plants have different watering needs. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch into the soil. If it feels dry, water the plant until the water drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
