Overview

The golden, cypress-like foliage of this compact, evergreen shrub looks good all year, but is particularly handsome in the winter garden. It forms a neat pillow shape, which in summer is topped with small clusters of pretty white flowers. It's great for pots or alpine beds, and as it is tolerant of salty air, it also works well in a coastal setting. Plant it in generous drifts to create structual groundcover, or use it to line a path or border's edge.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Larger pots (2L and above) are wrapped in waxed paper and then attached to a cardboard base so they stay stable in the box. The waxed paper prevents the compost from spilling out and gives the base some added protection from damp compost. For large numbers of plants, pallets may be used for shipping.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
