Plant description
The scale-like leaves of this compact, broadly conical conifer are white when they first start to emerge, and this gives the impression that the plant has been dusted with snow. As the foliage matures however, it turns a rich bluish green, and it remains like that throughout the year. The plants defined profile makes it ideal for adding structure interest to pots and borders.
