This delightful conifer hails from China and Korea, where it has been treasured in gardens for over a millennium. Its dependable character and bright appearance continue to win over gardeners today.
The ‘Aurea Nana’ cultivar is particularly brilliant for smaller gardens. It naturally forms a pleasing rounded shape without requiring any pruning. The lovely golden-green needles maintain their vibrant colour year-round, providing much-needed brightness during dreary winter months.
This hardy conifer thrives in our changeable climate and copes well with the challenges of urban environments, including air pollution. Its slow-growing nature means it typically only reaches 1-1.5m tall over many years, so there’s no worry about it taking over your space.
The thick, fan-shaped foliage sprays add lovely texture to any planting scheme. During winter months, the needles develop attractive bronze hints for added seasonal appeal. It’s ideal for bringing structure to flower beds or serving as an eye-catching feature in compact areas.
These versatile little conifers suit many different garden styles. They look fantastic in rock gardens, gravel areas, and pots. They’re especially useful for adding height to patio arrangements or flanking doorways. Their tidy growth habit makes them perfect for gardens where low maintenance is key.
Once settled, the ‘Aurea Nana’ is remarkably resilient. It thrives in both full sun and light shade and isn’t particular about soil type, provided drainage is reasonable. It also tolerates dry conditions well after its first year or two.
