This evergreen shrub boasts a striking spiral habit, creating an eye-catching focal point in gardens or landscapes. With a compact and upright growth form, it is suitable for hardiness zones 5 to 9, thriving in temperatures ranging from cold winters to moderate summer climates. This variety does not display significant fall color, nor does it produce noticeable flowers or fruit. Preferring well-drained, moderately fertile soils with a slightly alkaline pH, it can adapt to full sun or partial shade conditions. Mature plants are lightweight due to their compact stature, making them manageable to reposition or prune. Deer resistance is excellent, making it a low-maintenance option for areas prone to browsing. Typically reaching a height of 4 to 6 feet, this spiral-shaped evergreen adds architectural flair to containers, garden paths, or formal hedging designs.
