2.5 QT Live Plant Slender Hinoki False Cypress

Slender Hinoki False Cypress is a graceful, upright evergreen shrub prized for its elegant, sculpted appearance and rich green, fan-like foliage. Its naturally slender, conical habit brings refined structure and year-round texture to beds, borders, and mixed plantings, making it a standout accent in any landscape.

With its gently layered, feathery branches, this false cypress works beautifully as a specimen plant, in foundation plantings, or as a low-maintenance hedge element. It grows slowly, keeping a tidy, manageable form with minimal care, and its soft, dense foliage adds depth and contrast to surrounding plants. Well suited to containers and smaller garden spaces, it is an easy choice for gardeners seeking lasting structure and color.
