The ‘Repens Aurea’ is a delightful conifer which eventually forms a spreading mound of deep green foliage. This conifer is 2-3 years old at the moment, and it currently has a ‘Catherine Wheel’ type appearance as its branches are spouting off at different angles and reaching out in different directions. The newer pine-like leaves are bright yellow-green and these contrast beautifully with the more mature darker leaves. This conifer looks great on the edge of a rockery as its pendulous branches will gracefully hang over the border.
