Chamaecyparis thyoides 'Blue Rock'
Chamaecyparis 'Blue Rock' is a slow-growing conifer prized for its soft, steel-blue foliage and elegant pyramidal form. Its gently cascading sprays of ornamental leaves create a loose, airy texture that adds movement and colour contrast in the garden. Compact and reliable, it makes an attractive feature for rockeries, small borders, or containers, where its cool tones provide year-round interest.
With an annual growth rate of just 10–15cm, ‘Blue Rock’ develops steadily into a dense, well-shaped plant, reaching around 50cm in height after 10 years. Its neat habit and soft colouring make it especially effective when combined with contrasting evergreens, heathers, or grasses. Low maintenance and hardy, it is a superb choice for smaller gardens or decorative planting schemes.
