Hinoki Cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa) is a stately, slow-growing evergreen conifer native to Japan and highly prized for its elegant pyramidal shape, layered horizontal branching, and distinctive reddish-brown exfoliating bark.

🌱 Seed Preparation & Germination

Seeds are very small. For best results:

1. Soak seeds in water for 24 hours.

2. Cold stratify 30–40 days at 40°F in a moist medium (not wet).

3. Sow indoors 1/8 inch deep and keep evenly moist (never soggy).

Growing Tip: Provide protection from strong winds when young. Prune lightly in summer if shaping is desired, avoiding cuts into mature brown wood. Ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot.
