Green Globe
Coming from New Zealand this plant forms a very tight tennis ball shape that is dark green. Height in 10yrs 6 inches.

Dark green colour bush similar in size to Minima Aurea.

Pottenii
Soft sea green foliage in a slender column makes this a very worthy specimen plant.

Pygmaea Argentia
The white tips of this flat topped bush really stands out in the spring and winter. The contrast between the green makes a wonderful foil to heathers.

Silver Threads
Yet another from the Ellwoodii family. The white flecks of the foliage are brightest in the spring. Keep well fed and watered to get the best from this variety.

Stardust
This is one of the better known Lawson conifers. Its bright gold slender column is seen in numerous gardens. Height in 10yrs 6ft (2m)

Tamariscifolia
This bush can get to be quite big but is well worth growing in the right place. The foliage is very dark green and grows in layers that overlap each other.

Treasure
Golden flecks if not large sprays

of foliage make this a noticeable conifer. It is however prone to keeping moisture in the foliage so can brown off and then look untidy.

Yellow Transparent
Not that widely grown, this is an absolute gem in the spring when the new growth looks transparent in full sun.

Snow White
A new variety that is covered by a plant breeders rights licence. The Ellwoodii parents give this conifer a good conical shape that has creamy white tips. Keep well fed and watered to keep the best colour.
