Description
The Chamaecyparis lawsoniana 'Ivonne' is one of the most colourful varieties of conifers with its very intense lemon yellow evergreen foliage. This highly ornamental tree has a conical, compact habit with upright branches, making it ideal for creating beautiful privacy hedges that are resistant to sea spray, pollution, and cold weather. With slow growth, it requires little pruning. Its moderate development also makes it suitable for individual planting, even in smaller spaces. This low-maintenance plant will thrive in sheltered locations with cool, fertile, deep, and well-drained soil.
The Lawson Cypress, sometimes called false cypress, is a majestic conifer of the Cupressaceae family native to the moist coastal forests of the northwest United States. In its natural environment, it often reaches heights exceeding 30m (98.4ft) with a trunk diameter approaching 1m (3.3ft). It has an upright, conical habit, and its pendulous branches form soft curtains adorned with fairly dark, bluish-green foliage. It has given rise to numerous cultivars, including a wide range of plants with more modest stature, better suited to the size of our gardens.
The 'Ivonne' variety is a very beautiful form of this species that will not exceed 5m (16.4ft) in height and 2m (6.6ft) in width. From a young age, it exhibits a conical habit that is slender, narrow and very dense, supported by upright branches emerging from the base of the trunk. Its slender and flattened branches are densely covered with lemon-yellow scale-like leaves that turn slightly green during summer heat and on shaded parts of the foliage.
The Chamaecyparis lawsonia 'Ivonne' can be used as a hedge, as a specimen, or planted in a grove in a medium to small garden. It does not require pruning, but can tolerate light pruning. With a strong presence and a distinct personality, it is quite challenging to associate with other large shrubs, but it works well as a neutral-coloured screen at the back of shrub or perennial beds. The architectural qualities of conifers deserve to be more frequently used in our gardens, where they provide permanent structure. These plants are discreet in summer but assert themselves in winter when other flowers have deserted our gardens.

Planting and care
The Chamaecyparis lawsoniana 'Ivonne' is planted in spring or autumn in a light fertile soil, rich in humus, sandy, slightly acidic, neutral or slightly chalky. This conifer thrives in the sun (in a fairly humid climate) or in partial shade. Water the plants regularly during the months following planting. This conifer is not too demanding of soil quality, but it suffers in dry soils and climates. It is a species of cool, oceanic or mountain climates. This tree does not require pruning, but it can tolerate it if kept light: shorten the young branchlets without going back to the old wood.

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.
