Plant description
Forming a dense, compact cone shaped dome of fan-like sprays of golden foliage, which becomes greener as it matures, this little conifer is at its best when grown in a sunny spot. The foliage usually takes on a richer colouring when the temperatures drop in winter, and being so compact, it is ideal for pots, alpine beds or front of border positions.
