Hinoki cypress with arching sprays of golden, fern-like foliage decorate this arresting tree. Each unique, flattened branch tapers to a point, just as a fern frond does. In our Indiana garden our ‘Fernspray’ is in bright dapled shade and does very well. Our 98F bright sun is more than i think it should have, use caution in hot climates. Zone 5 /Intermediate/ Yellow (false cypress)
