General Care
- Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade, requiring at least 6 hours of direct light daily for optimal growth.
- Watering: Water regularly after planting to establish a healthy root system; once established, needs only occasional watering during extended dry periods
- Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch around the base to conserve moisture and regulate soil temperature. Keep mulch slightly away from the trunk to ensure proper airflow.
- Pruning: Minimal pruning is necessary; remove only dead or crossing branches in late winter or early spring to maintain its tidy, columnar shape.
Verdoni Cypress brings a refined, modern accent to Michigan landscapes, offering an inspiring combination of architectural elegance and evergreen beauty that elevates any outdoor space.
