Chamaecyparis obtusa #17 web special

Chamaecyparis obtusa #17 web specialI found this plant at Stanley & Sons Nursery 20 years ago and liked it. It is a nice, tight Hinoki cypress that grows to be 18" tall and 24" wide in 10 years. It is probably on of Ed Resek's seedlings, and he had many nice ones. This will be a collector's favorite, or someone who loves to have all the Hinoki cypress they can get.

In warmer climates this tree can grow to 10 ft tall in 10 years

but brighter

The white flowers with red markings create a feeling of formality when Lady de Rothschild blooms in late April

The flowers will be in clusters of lavender-pink in color and about 3/4" in length

Exceptional foliage with rich orange indumentum covering the undersides of the foliage on this new hybrid by Singing Tree Gardens

the salmon pink flowers completely cover the foliage making a grand display

but not too much that will cause burning
