Dwarf Japanese Red Cedar 'Little Jade'

Cryptomeria japonica 'Little Jade' is a delightful dwarf conifer, forming an irregular, broadly mounding shape with dense, short, bright green needles that often develop attractive bronzy-purple tints in winter. This slow-growing cultivar is ideal for rockeries, small borders, or containers, typically reaching 60-90 cm in height and spread. It prefers full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained, acidic soil (H6). Its appealing texture and evergreen colour provide year-round interest and a refined presence in small spaces. A low-maintenance plant, 'Little Jade' is a reliable choice for adding evergreen structure and quiet charm.
