Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Sunlight Lace'
Chamaecyparis obtusa ‘Sunlight Lace’ is a remarkable ornamental conifer known for its upright and broad habit, as well as its finely dissected, luminous yellow foliage, which is very distinctive. This selection stands out with a structured and elegant silhouette, making it ideal as a focal point in landscape designs, in mass plantings, or as a specimen plant. Its persistent, delicately serrated foliage captures the light and maintains an intense color in full sun, while appreciating light afternoon shade in warmer regions. With intermediate growth, it develops a strong presence without becoming invasive. Well-adapted to Quebec conditions in a protected situation, ‘Sunlight Lace’ offers lasting ornamental value year-round thanks to its refined texture, vibrant color, and architectural habit, perfectly integrated into structured or contemporary gardens.
