Chamaecyparis pisifera

Chamaecyparis pisifera, also known as Sawara cypress, features soft, feathery foliage in shades of green to silvery-blue, offering year-round visual interest. It has no noticeable flowers or fragrance and is not edible. Low maintenance and cold-hardy, it suits both beginners and experienced gardeners. Prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Ideal for outdoor gardens, rockeries, or as a bonsai specimen; not recommended for small indoor spaces due to size potential. Growth is moderate—patience is needed for full maturity. Non-toxic to humans and pets, making it safe for family environments.
