A striking cloud-pruned specimen that brings the art of Niwaki-style topiary to the British garden. Each tree is meticulously trained to reveal graceful, tiered pom-pom foliage clusters along a clear central stem, creating a sculptural silhouette that looks magnificent year-round. If you're after a plant with genuine wow-factor and a touch of Eastern garden philosophy, this is a rare and rewarding choice.
Care
Thrives in full sun to partial shade in moist, well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first two seasons to establish, then moderately thereafter. Prune lightly in late spring and early autumn to maintain the cloud shapes — avoid cutting back into old wood. Protect from prolonged waterlogging.
Hardiness: H5
