Melody Dwarf Hinoki Cypress - Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Melody'
Melody is my new favorite Hinoki. The leaves are like lace. I just love the many different colors throughout each branch and the texture is really graceful. Can you tell it's one of my favorite? The lemon yellow foliage in summer will bronze a bit in colder winters - that just adds more charm. The growth shape is narrow when young, and will broaden with age. You really can't beat Melody's color and will brighten your day, all year long. Avoid strong afternoon sun in the summertime if it's on a pot Behaves well in part shade, at least 5-6 hours of sun Cool-full sun or part sun Growth rate is 3 to 5" per year Upright broad in shape Cold hardy to -20F or zones 5-6 Heat zones: 8-1 Great in containers Regular water, do not let the soil dry out Comes in a 4" pot An outdoor plant We recommend printing this page out for reference.
