Growing Conditions and Care

Smooth Arizona Cypress prefers full sun exposure and well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soils. It tolerates drought once established but benefits from regular watering during dry periods to maintain vibrant foliage. Avoid waterlogged or heavy clay soils. Light pruning after the growing season helps maintain its neat shape and encourages dense growth. Fertilizing in early spring supports healthy development.

Ideal Uses in NZ Gardens

Cupressus Glabra is perfect for creating elegant vertical accents, formal hedges, or effective windbreaks in gardens and landscapes. Its distinctive silvery foliage adds unique colour contrast to garden beds and borders. This conifer’s adaptability makes it suitable for coastal and inland regions across New Zealand, offering year-round privacy and shelter.
