- A festive lemon cypress tree for indoor or outdoor use!
- Indoor use: lasts indoors for weeks to months when kept lightly moist (but not wet) in an area with bright and direct light near windows. Avoid placing near heaters where the needles may dry out.
- Outdoor use: best suited for sandy or well-draining soils in full sun in zones 7-10, reaching 6' tall and 3-4' wide at maturity.
Plant spacing is based on the ultimate width of the plants. This figure is normally given as a range; for example, 3-5’. If you live in a cold climate and/or want plants to fill in more quickly, plan to space at the shorter end of the range. If you live in a warm climate, are on a limited budget, or are willing to wait longer for plants to touch, use the higher end of the range. Using the larger number is recommended when calculating distance from a building or structure. There’s really no such thing as "maximum spacing": if you don’t want your plants to touch, you can space them as far apart as you’d like. All plant spacing is calculated on center, or in other words, the centers of the plants are spaced one half of their eventual width apart:
Unless you are planting in a straight line, as you might for hedges or edging, space your plants in a staggered or zig-zag pattern for a more interesting and naturalistic look:
Decked out with tinsel and garland or centered in family gatherings, living Christmas trees and wintergreens evoke a sense of nostalgia and warm fuzzy feelings in the home. Here, we’ll introduce our new living holiday trees that look fabulous paired with your festive tablescapes and décor.
Very healthy.
I had lemon cypress last year and it died. So when I got my plant it was beautiful so I repotted it and misted it and it got crispy. It’s been a few weeks and I mist it heavily every day. It’s still crispy and the color is faded. I don’t think it’s going to make it.
Six months later it is thriving! I will continue to shop here, everything I have ordered in the past arrived healthy and are flourishing!
Love the cypresses
I am bonsaiing them and they are doing great
