Tsuga can. 'Pendula' (Sargentii)

This graceful, weeping evergreen conifer is known for its cascading habit, creating a dramatic, sculptural focal point in the garden. Hardy in zones 4 to 7, it thrives in cool climates with recommended temperatures ranging from -20°F to 20°F. It prefers well-drained, slightly acidic soils and can reach a mature height of 10 to 15 feet, with a spread of 12 to 15 feet. The foliage is rich green and soft-textured, with no significant fall color. Although it does not produce prominent flowers, cones are present, lending subtle visual interest. Deer resistant and slow-growing, it is ideal for both formal landscapes and naturalistic settings. Its unique cascading form makes it a perfect choice for rock gardens, slopes, or as a stand-alone specimen.
