Iseli Nursery: Dwarf Conifers, Japanese Maples, Living Art®, Bonsai

Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Jean Iseli'

Globose | Zone 5
Miniature | Green

Sculptural, superfine, and fun. This charming miniature Hinoki is an appropriate namesake for dwarf conifer pioneer Jean Iseli. Its tightly pressed fans of foliage swirl and dance into an elegant upright sculpture that packs big impact into a tiny package. The refined, true green foliage and measured growth pay tribute to the character and vision of the early conifer aficionado. This selection, named in memory of Iseli by John Oliver, originated from ‘Nana Gracilis’ seed given to Oliver Nursery in 1981.
