Read detailed description :

Moderately growing plant, interesting for its regular form. Narrow conical form, with dense and compact vegetation. Rustic and resistant to pollution. Slender leaf branches, blue, lightly tinted with grey, deeper than the lawsoniana 'Alumii'. Appreciates a well drained soil. Good in groups of 3, isolated, or as lovely trimmed screening hedges. Can grow to 6-8m in height and 1.5-2m in width.
