A dwarf, slow-growing evergreen conifer which, unlike the typical species, produces a compact, flattened spherical bush, eventually reaching up to 2m (6½ft) high and 4m (13½ft) across. The dark-green needles are stiff, up to 12cm (5in) long and very densely produced so that the stems and basal branches are concealed by them. It is an ideal choice for a small city, or courtyard garden, where an architectural or evergreen focal point is needed
