Description
Fast Growing Evergreen Popular for Privacy
Cryptomeria Japonica Radicans, also known as Japanese Cedars, are a fast growing evergreen tree commonly used for privacy. The soft foliage is a dark green. Cryptomeria Radicans are pretty easy to grow. They adapt well to many soil types, even hard packed clay.
Cryptomeria Radicans have few problems. Although they tolerate many soil types, wet soil could create a fungus that turns the foliage closest to the trunk brown and eventually die.
These trees are a popular alternative to the Green Giant Thuja for homeowners because they don’t take up as much space.
