    Outstanding
    Qualities
    No garden should be without a  Hinoki  Cypress.  It matures at about 15 feet in height and forms a slender column to 6 feet wide.  Its tight, twisted, deep green fans of foliage  are held on tiered branches, creating an open habit , outstanding conifer. 
    Culture Hinoki cypresses thrive in well-drained,  compost -rich soil in bright shade.  I have seen them surviving and slowly growing in deep shade.  They can be grown in full sun with careful attention to watering during summer.
    Hardiness USDA zones 4 to 8
