Chamaecyparis pisifera Dwarf Blue

Chamaecyparis pisifera ‘Dwarf Blue’ is a compact Sawara cypress valued for its soft, feathery foliage in cool blue-green to silvery tones. This cultivar forms a dense, rounded to slightly irregular habit, offering refined texture and color without overwhelming nearby plantings. 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 4–8, it typically remains small to medium in size and works beautifully in rock gardens, mixed borders, and conifer collections.
