Cupressus ‘Lemon Essence’ – 140MM
(Not currently available to be ordered)
I am Lemon Essence. My family originated from California, USA
I am a delightful medium height conifer with a soft, natural cone shape and golden-green aromatic, lemon-scented foliage. I perform equally well garden planted as I do container painted in large posts. Plant me near paths, doors and windows where the scent can be enjoyed when brushing against the foliage. Planting a row of me at close spacing is a great way to create a low maintenance screening hedge. My good natural form requires no pruning to look great but I can be pruned to formal shapes as desired. |
