Jervis Dwarf Canada Hemlock - Tsuga canadensis 'Jervis'

A favorite miniature garden tree! The Jervis Dwarf Canada Hemlock is a miniature garden favorite. Perfect for the railroad garden or fairy garden. Great in pots or right in the garden bed. The irregular growth habits of Jervis is full of character and there is always a good 'trunk' on the wee tree to lift it off the ground. It's tough, can handle full sun with regular water. Prune lightly along the trunk to keep it looking like a wee tree. It ages really well into a majestic tree in miniature as you can see by the first photo. Can be pruned along the base of the trunk to look more like a tree, and it can be gently pruned from the top down to control the growth rate any further. Short, dense branches Wonderful dark green foliage Prune away bottom branches to form a tree Growth rate 3" to 6" per year - well-under 3" per year here in the Northwest Tiny, tan buds in the springtime Great for shady spots with cool soil Low maintenance and well behaved Growth: 2 to 3"/yr Cold hardy Zon
