CHAMAECYPARIS PIS FIL AUREA
Grower Notes:

Chamaecyparis pisifera filifera 'Aurea' is commonly referred to as Sawara Goldthread Falsecypress. This popular, hardy evergreen shrub features tightly compressed golden yellow thread-like weeping needles wrapped around pendulous branchlets. It keeps its bright yellow color throughout the growing season before fading in fall. Small green cones appear in summer and turn dark brown when ripe.

Sawara Goldthread Falsecypress remains attractive all year and requires very little pruning. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and looks best when planted with southern exposure. It enjoys average, moist, well-drained soils, and can be drought tolerant once established.
