Cupressus sempervirens 'Stricta' (Pencil Cypress)
Cupressus sempervirens 'Stricta' is a tall narrow evergreen conifer admired for its dense upright form and rich dark green foliage. This classic architectural tree provides year round structure, privacy, and formality in NZ landscapes while also creating a striking vertical feature in modern and Mediterranean inspired gardens. Its naturally columnar shape makes it ideal for avenue planting, screening, entranceways, and feature planting where strong structure and low maintenance performance are desired. Cupressus sempervirens 'Stricta' is highly valued for its elegant appearance, resilience, and year round landscape appeal.
Taxus baccata Fastigata
Taxus baccata Fastigiata, commonly known as the Irish Yes, is a conifer grown for its attractive foliage and slender form. This evergreen has a rigid, upright branching habit which results in a tight columnar form. It typically grows to 4 m tall and 90 cm wide but can easily be kept to shorter heights. Taxus baccata Fastigata is commonly used to line or border an entrance, planted as a backdrop for smaller plants, grown as a screen, or planted as a hedge.
