Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is an ornamental form with a narrow or broad pyramidal crown. In 10 years, the plant reaches a height of 2.5–3.5 m, and a mature specimen grows to 3–5 meters. It is distinguished by soft, feathery needles that change color from fresh green to bronze-brown in autumn before shedding.

The plant is winter-hardy, adapts to various soil types, including moist areas. It is resistant to diseases and does not require complex maintenance. Due to its compact structure, it is used in group plantings and as a specimen plant.
