Description
Chamaecyparis lawsonia Green Globe is the smallest of the Lawson's cypresses. This rockery conifer is a miniature bush, forming a very dense ball with vibrant green foliage. While its growth is very regular when young, it becomes more tousled with the years. Not exceeding 50 cm (19.7 in) at maturity, it grows slowly and is particularly suitable for permanent decoration in rockeries and containers. It is hardy and accommodating but appreciates sunlight and moist, fertile, slightly chalky, neutral or acidic soils.
The Lawson Cypress, sometimes called false cypress, is a majestic conifer of the cupressaceae family native to the humid coastal forests of the northwest United States. In its environment, it often reaches over 30 m (98 ft 5 in) in height, with a trunk approaching 1.20 m (3 ft 11 in) in diameter. Its habit is straight and conical, and its trailing branches form soft curtains dressed in fairly dark, bluish-green foliage. It has given rise to numerous cultivars, among which there is a wide choice of smaller-sized plants.
The Green Globe cultivar is a miniature form of this species. It has a very dense round ball habit, not exceeding 30 cm (11.8 in) in all directions after 10 years of cultivation. At maturity, it will form a small bush of 50 to 70 cm (19.7 to 27.6 in), with somewhat disorderly growth. It produces many slender, flattened branches covered with two types of scale-like leaves, a fairly tender green when juvenile, then a fairly dark but vibrant green in adult leaves.
Chamaecyparis lawsonia Green Globe, with its round silhouette and small size, is ideal for enhancing the decoration of a rockery or a flower bed, or planted in groups of 3 specimens in a container. It does not require pruning. The architectural qualities of dwarf conifers naturally impose themselves in the design of a contemporary garden, which prefers the aesthetics of shapes, silhouettes and textures over flowers. These plants structurally enhance a flower bed, mark pathways and border terraces, easily replacing the strong presence of trimmed boxwood. They serve as a setting for small roses, peonies, or unruly grasses with a very complementary form. They can also be combined with shrubs or ground cover plants such as aubrietas and ceraistes, as well as flowering shrubs. The key is to play with volumes and colours.

This conifer thrives in the sun (in humid climates) or in partial shade. Water regularly during the months following planting.

This bush does not require pruning, but one can remove unsightly or obstructive branches to accentuate its round habit.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
