Three Ball Castlewellan Gold Cypress Italian Plants (Cupressus Lawsoniana Castlewellan Gold Three Balls)

Three Ball Castlewellan Gold Cypress Italian Plants Description

The Three Ball Castlewellan Gold Cypress is a striking, ornamental evergreen conifer that adds year round visual interest to gardens and landscapes. Known for its unique, sculptural shape, this cultivar features three rounded, golden yellow clusters of foliage, which are a standout feature in any garden. The foliage retains its vibrant colour throughout the year, making it especially valuable in winter when many plants lose their visual appeal.

This compact, slow growing conifer is ideal for small gardens, borders, or containers. Its architectural form brings a touch of formality and structure, and it works well in both contemporary and traditional garden designs. The Three Ball Castlewellan Gold Cypress is a low maintenance plant that can be used to create focal points, add colour contrast, or soften hard landscaping elements like walls and paths.

Pruning Advice

Minimal pruning: The Three Ball Castlewellan Gold Cypress is naturally compact, so it typically needs little to no pruning to maintain its shape.

Avoid heavy pruning: This plant is not suited to hard pruning or cutting back significantly. Over pruning can result in loss of its distinctive rounded shape and may affect its overall health.

Protection: Be cautious when pruning near the foliage clusters, as these can be sensitive to cuts. Use sharp, clean tools to ensure a neat finish and reduce the risk of disease.
