Chamaecyparis obtusa ´Wells Special´
Hinoki Cypress
Zone: 5-8
4"-8" /year
8´-10´ /10 years
upright, conical - partial shade
This is an excellent choice for an upright green hinoki. ´Wells Special´ has a finely cut, layered look to it that calls to mind the traditional Japanese garden. Whether used as a single focal point of interest, or planted in small groups of 2 or 3, the dark green foliage, moderate growth rate, and narrow upright form make ´Wells Special´ a remarkable addition to the garden, that can be admired 365 days a year.
