There's so much to love about this evergreen shrub. Lemon Thread is admired for its brilliant yellow, thread-like foliage, which brightens the winter landscape beautifully. Exfoliating reddish-orange bark adds to the winter attraction, and, once the plant is fully matured, it will offer up small cones. Slow-growing, Lemon Thread will reach three to five feet in the first 20 years. Try this adorably bright false cypress in rock gardens, along walkways, or in any place that needs a bright touch in the colder months. CHAMAECYPARIS PSIFERA 'LEMON THREAD'
