(Dwarf Threadleaf Falsecypress, Japanese Falsecypress, Sawara Falsecypress)
Represented in gardens primarily by three large groups of cultivars, Sawara falsecypress is a hardy evergreen conifer native to Japan. Its clasping scale-like leaves, cascading tassel-like branchlets, and self-descriptive moniker mark 'Filifera Nana' as a member of the Filifera Group. Introduced to Western gardens in the late 19th Century, this slow-growing cultivar forms a dwarf flat-topped mound of lacy dark green foliage. The pea-sized spherical fruits are rarely if ever produced.

Having finely textured dark green needles that blush purpled bronze in winter's cold, Atlantic whitecedar becomes a rather mundane, plump-columned tree. Native to the coastal plains of the eastern United States, from Maine to Florida and Mississippi, it is an evergreen conifer. The reddish, gray-brown bark is well hidden by the dense, prickly tufts of needled foliage. Ranging in color from gray-green to dark green with small white bands on undersides, the cold of winter causes leaves to become bronze...
