Chamaecyparis obtusa Graciosa

Chamaecyparis obtusa ‘Graciosa’ is a graceful Hinoki cypress distinguished by its softly arching, layered branchlets and refined texture. This cultivar forms a loose, irregular habit that feels elegant and naturalistic compared to more formal Hinoki selections. It grows best in full sun to partial shade with evenly moist, well-drained soil and has a slow to moderate growth rate. Hardy in USDA Zones 5–8, it matures as a small tree or large shrub and works beautifully as a specimen in both formal and informal garden settings.
