Description
Compact and evergreen, this elegant dwarf holiday lemon cypress tree (Cupressus macrocarpa 'Goldcrest Wilma') will emit an aromatic, citrusy pine scent and look lovely when placed on table tops or front porches. Make this tree festive by adding some red tinsel or beautiful string lights, putting in a holiday planter, or placing family ornaments throughout. Because lemon cypress is evergreen, it makes for a long-lasting gift for your loved ones, or yourself. No matter your plans, the vivid yellow foliage is sure to make spirits bright! Ships in black nursery pot.
Plant spacing is based on the ultimate width of the plants. This figure is normally given as a range; for example, 3-5’. If you live in a cold climate and/or want plants to fill in more quickly, plan to space at the shorter end of the range. If you live in a warm climate, are on a limited budget, or are willing to wait longer for plants to touch, use the higher end of the range. Using the larger number is recommended when calculating distance from a building or structure. There’s really no such thing as "maximum spacing": if you don’t want your plants to touch, you can space them as far apart as you’d like. All plant spacing is calculated on center, or in other words, the centers of the plants are spaced one half of their eventual width apart:
Unless you are planting in a straight line, as you might for hedges or edging, space your plants in a staggered or zig-zag pattern for a more interesting and naturalistic look:
Decked out with tinsel and garland or centered in family gatherings, living Christmas trees and wintergreens evoke a sense of nostalgia and warm fuzzy feelings in the home. Here, we’ll introduce our new living holiday trees that look fabulous paired with your festive tablescapes and décor.
Moved inside and used grow lights during freezing temps, but otherwise, moved outside and watered as instructed. What a total disappointment! Can I get something livable to replace these dying brittle duos in zone 8 that didn’t make it to Xmas?

If I could give it ten stars, I would... JUST for the smell. I have it in the entryway of our house, and can always catch the fresh lemony scent when I walk in the door!!!!
Great Garden Plants is my favorite site for ordering all of my perennials and shrubs. So when they launched these adorable living Christmas trees, I had to get my hands on some! I ordered all three holiday plants, and all arrived healthy and in great shape. I just love the bright pop of color from Lemon Cypress mixed with the flocked Evergreen.
I just love these beautiful little trees, they are doing great in my containers.
