dwarf, conical
´Compressa´ is one of those plants that is on a "cuteness" par with puppies, bunnies, or a child dressed and ready for their first day of school. This dwarf, narrow, tight conical plant has very fine silver-blue foliage. It rarely needs pruning, and is an outstanding choice for the rock garden, or any garden area, whether used in groups as a dividing line within the landscape, in pairs along a walk, of as a singular point of interest. We also prune some of these plants into an adorable spiral form. These topiaries lie somewhere off the "cute" charts!
