‘Wissel’s Saguaro’ Lawson cypress

Chamaecyparis lawsoniana 'Wissel's Saguaro'

A moderately fast-growing, narrow upright selection of Lawson cypress with fastigiate branching that twists, producing arms that resemble a Saguaro cactus. Blue-green foliage is thick and contorted. At 10 years, a mature specimen could measure 6 feet tall and 2 feet wide. An annual growth rate is about 6-8 inches. This cultivar originated as a witch’s broom found in the early 60s on a specimen of Chamaecyparis lawsoniana ‘Wissel’s’ in the Netherlands.
