Care:

Evergreen plants retain their foliage through multiple growing seasons, bringing year-round interest and structure to gardens. Though they are generally easy to grow, there are some plant care tips that will help your evergreens thrive.

Be sure to provide moisture for your evergreens. They will become stressed if placed near a source of dry air, causing them to drop needles and die. Water your evergreens well into fall, before the plants go into wintering. For evergreens, autumn is the most important season for hydration. In winter, water once every couple of weeks, but do not overwater.

Potted evergreens should be kept wherever they can get bright, filtered sunlight. Outdoors, constant air circulation allows evergreens to handle more direct sunlight. Evergreens prefer well-draining soils. Soil should not be overly wet or mushy.

Trim new growth to maintain shape if desired; however, this tree stays, for the most part, in a nice conical shape on its own. If you decide to grow Lemon Cypress indoors, make sure the tree receives at least 5 hours of direct and bright light each day. 

Description:

This tree, a cypress of the 'Wilma' variety, is a wonderful cone-shaped tree for the smallest spaces or containers. You may even wish to decorate it as a mini Christmas tree! Its common name comes from the strong citrus scent emitted from the branches when crushed or brushed. This tree can be grown indoors or outside and is a very popular plant in Europe.

Note: Plants are a lime green color when grown indoors; color will change to a golden yellow when placed in full sun.
