The bright greenish gold foliage lights up landscapes all year round, forming a dense mounding bush.

Gold Thread Cypress is rated for full sun, but it seems to do best in a location with a little afternoon shade. It likes well drained soil too!

This shrub is not a very fast grower, slowly reaching a height of 6-8 feet tall and wide. Pruning should be done in late winter or early spring to control height. It looks great when kept to a flattened ball 2 or 3 feet tall!

Hardy in zones 4-9
