Description
An indispensable, beastly good golden rendition of the slender Hinoki which is hardly slender at all, gaining girth with age (as if this doesnÆt happen to us), carrying yellowed foliage along stems rising to 15 ft. tall and spreading to 10 ft., remarkable for winter substance in our semi-shaded arbor bed. On these, we grow Aconitum episcopale, a climbing monkshood, which offers a fine contrast in color amidst the gilded foliage.
