Chamaecyparis lawsoniana 'Stardust' (Lawson Cypress Stardust) -Root Balled

Chamaecyparis 'Stardust', commonly known as a golden conifer, is a striking evergreen shrub admired for its feathery, golden-yellow foliage that provides year-round visual appeal. This cultivar, part of the false cypress family (Chamaecyparis), has a compact, pyramidal form that makes it a versatile choice for gardens and landscapes. Reaching a modest height of about 8-12 feet at maturity, 'Stardust' thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Its vibrant foliage adds contrast to mixed borders, rock gardens, or as a stand-alone specimen plant. In addition to its ornamental value, 'Stardust' is low-maintenance and tolerant of urban pollution, making it an excellent choice for both novice and seasoned gardeners. Regular pruning can maintain its shape and enhance its dense, golden canopy, which intensifies in colour during the winter months.
