Growing & Maintenance Tips for Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Filicoides Compacta'

This cultivar tolerates a wide range of soils, providing they are well-drained. It will also thrive in drought conditions once established. Limit pruning to removing only dead and dying branches, as over-pruning will ruin its unique appearance.
