Product description

  • This is a most attractive, golden foliage variant of Leyland cypress, which is more compact and slow-growing than the original green form.
  • Common Name Leyland cypress Genus x Cupressocyparis Species leylandii Cultivar 'Castlewellan Gold' Skill Level Beginner Exposure Full sun, Partial shade Hardiness Hardy Soil type Well-drained light Height 2500cm Spread 500cm Time to take cuttings July to August
  • The colour is at its best in late spring when the new growth appears, but it keeps its gold hue well all year round. It makes a good plant for a hedge or screen, and can be clipped about three times per year to maintain the required size. If allowed to grow as a specimen plant it can eventually reach about 20m (65ft), which is around two-thirds the ultimate size of the green form. To propagate, take semi-ripe cuttings in late summer.
