The Sunny Swirl Hinoki Cypress provides vibrant color visual interest all year. Long, frond-like chartreuse foliage has hints of gold near the tips, and the natural twist to each branch adds extra dimension and drama. Mahogany red bark peaks out from behind the foliage for subtle hints of color. Chamaecyparis obtusa is a graceful dwarf tree that will reach 6 to 8 feet tall.

This plant is a slow grower that can be used as a focal point, hedge, border, conceal a fence, or provide privacy. Use this shrub as a focal point to anchor a landscape. Cypress are low-maintenance, drought-tolerant plants. This cultivar is a perennial in USDA zones 5 through 9.

Sunny Swirl Hinoki Cypress Care

Plant in full sun to draw out the golden hues of the foliage, although this beauty can live in partial shade. Rich, moist soil that allows good drainage is preferred. The soil should be neutral to acidic. Water when the soil is slightly damp, but avoid soggy conditions. 

Feed the Sunny Swirl Hinoki Cypress using a slow-release fertilizer in the spring. The natural shape is part of the appeal of this plant, and it does not require much pruning. Dead growth can be removed as needed.

Sunny Swirl Hinoki Cypress Spacing

This tall, upright plant grows up to 6 to 8 feet tall and 4 to 5 feet wide. Shrubs can be spaced 2 to 4 feet apart to create a hedge-like look.
