Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Chirimen' - Hinoki Cypress

Bring sculptural elegance to your garden with Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Chirimen', a slow-growing, dwarf Hinoki cypress with an upright, irregular form and densely packed, twisted foliage sprays in deep green. Its name, inspired by a textured Japanese crepe fabric, reflects its intricate leaf arrangement, which adds fine detail and year-round interest to rock gardens, alpine beds, and containers.

Thrives in full sun to partial shade in moist, well-drained soil. Requires minimal maintenance beyond occasional shaping. Perfect for small gardens or Japanese-inspired landscapes. Pair with Acer palmatum 'Shaina', Ophiopogon planiscapus 'Nigrescens', or Heuchera 'Lime Marmalade' for a balanced, textural display that highlights its unique form.

Supplied in approx. 2.5 litre containers.
