Cryptomeria japonica Sekkan
Sekkan Sugi Japanese cedar
Common Name: Sekkan Sugi Japanese cedarLatin Name: Cryptomeria japonica 'Sekkan-Sugi'Soil: Any good garden soilPosition: Full sun or partial shade (avoid very exposed position)Hardiness: Fully hardyEventual height/ spread: 8m/3mSpecial features: Evergreen leaves that are creamy yellow when young and mature to dark greenThis cedar is a more compact version of the popular Cryptomeria japonica and its relatively narrow spread makes it suitable for smaller spaces. The leaves are in line with that of the species: awl-shaped and glossy. New foliage starts out as a creamy yellow colour and it matures to a dark green, but then takes on yellow tints in winter. The branches are slightly pendulous, which adds structural interest, and this will eventually form a conical tree. This is a great choice for year-round interest as it will add a healthy dose of colour all year round. If you want a planting partner then the Acacia dealbata as both trees are evergreen, but they have different foliage, which offer contrasting textures.

Picea pungens Iseli Fastigiate
Colorado Spruce Iseli Fastigiate
Common Name: Colorado Spruce Iseli FastigiateLatin Name: Picea Pungens 'Iseli Fastigiate'Soil: Prefers rich moist soil. Acid or neutral.Position: Full sun. Flowering period/colour: Non-floweringHardiness: Fully hardy (to below -20°C). Height and spread in 10-20 years: 5m-10m/0.7mSpecial features: Handsome oval spruce. Blue needles maturing to darker blue-green. Rounded, upright blue spruce with branches that grow vertically upward, rather than horizontally outward as in so many other varieties. The whole tree is shaped like a vertically elongated oval, which gives a pleasingly comfortable outline in a border. Young needles are more silver than the greener mature needles so that there is a pattern of developing colour all over the tree. The colour change is very uniform, and again gives a pleasing aspect to the tree when viewed in the distance. This is a mid-sized to tall conifer which will provide a fine backdrop to a border, or take its place as a specimen tree in a larger landscape.
