Weeping Blue Alaskan Cedar (Chamaecyparis nootkatensis 'Glauca Pendula'), also classified as Callitropsis nootkatensis 'Glauca Pendula', is an ornamental evergreen conifer admired for its distinctive weeping branches and attractive blue-green foliage. Its narrow, upright central structure supports gracefully cascading branchlets, creating an elegant architectural appearance in residential gardens and ornamental landscapes.
The foliage consists of small, overlapping scale-like leaves arranged along drooping sprays. Its blue-green to gray-green coloration provides year-round interest, while its strongly pendulous branching habit creates a sculptural silhouette. This conifer is particularly well suited to specimen plantings, evergreen borders, woodland-inspired landscapes, and garden focal points.
Weeping Blue Alaskan Cedar generally performs best in full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. It prefers climates with moderate temperatures and adequate moisture, particularly during establishment. Its evergreen foliage and distinctive growth habit make it useful for landscapes where year-round structure and ornamental texture are desired.
You will receive one live Weeping Blue Alaskan Cedar plant in a 1 gallon nursery pot.
Pot Size: 1 Gallon.
Shipping height is not specified.
The plant is supplied as a young, nursery-grown evergreen conifer rather than a mature landscape specimen. Actual branching, leader development, foliage density, coloration, and overall appearance may vary according to nursery growth and seasonal conditions.
Young plants may have a less pronounced weeping form than established specimens. The characteristic cascading branch structure becomes more apparent as the plant develops. Natural seasonal changes in foliage tone and minor pruning or shaping may affect the appearance of the plant at shipping.
Plant Condition Disclosure:
Live plants may be shipped dormant, leafless, recently pruned, bare root, or partially defoliated depending on season, weather, and shipping requirements.
Natural variation in size, branching, foliage density, color, root structure, and overall appearance should be expected.
Important Note:
You will receive a live starter plant (seedling/young plant). Listing photos show the plant at a mature stage for reference only. The actual plant size, shape, and appearance may vary and will be significantly smaller than the images shown.
