A dense, upright evergreen shrub, this cultivar is prized for its pyramidal habit, making it an excellent choice for formal gardens, topiaries, or hedges. Hardy in zones 4-9, it thrives in temperatures ranging from -20°F to 90°F. Featuring a vibrant green foliage that remains consistent year-round, it does not display notable fall color changes. Its small, inconspicuous flowers are cream-colored and appear in spring. Deer-resistant and drought-tolerant once established, it grows well in a variety of soil types, preferring well-drained, slightly acidic to alkaline soils. Mature specimens reach a height of 4-5 feet and a width of 2-3 feet, with a compact, dense growth habit that requires minimal pruning to maintain its shape and form. Ideal for borders, foundation plantings, or as an architectural garden feature.
