Chamaecyparis nootkatensis ‘Boyko’s Sundown’ is a striking selection of Alaska Cedar prized for its vibrant foliage and graceful, pendulous branching. Its bright color intensifies in full sun, creating a warm, glowing effect in the landscape while maintaining the elegant texture characteristic of Nootka cypress.

With a moderate growth rate of 8-12 inches per year, ‘Boyko’s Sundown’ performs best in USDA Zones 4–8. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil, developing good drought tolerance once established. Ideal for specimen plantings, privacy screens, and conifer collections, this golden evergreen adds year-round color, structure, and architectural interest to residential and commercial landscapes.
