EVERGREEN PREMIER SELECTION
 
Chamaecyparis pisifera 'Baby Blue'
 
  Overall Description
 
   Baby Blue is a very attractive Chamaecyparis with intense silvery blue colored foliage that has a feathery look to it. Foliage turns a slight purplish plum color in winter months, giving this plant year round interest. Has an overall upright, somewhat conical growth habit and keeps a very nice tidy shape with little or no trimming at all. Makes a great accent planting, or can even be grouped together for hedge use. Also makes a great container specimen due to its slower growth rate, and manageable size at maturity.

Diseases / Insects: Chamaecyparis ( Falsecypress ) is relatively free of serious problems although blight (Phomopsis juniperovora), root rot and other minor insect pests have been noted on rare occasions.

Fertilization / Feeding: Either water soluble ( Miracle Gro, or equivalent ), or granular ( Holly Tone is excellent ). Other granular types with 6-12-12, or 10-10-10 ratio is acceptable. Best to fertilize in early spring, and again in mid fall - avoid feeding during hot summer months, and directly after transplanting.
