Totem Cypress Italian Plants Description

The Totem Cypress is an elegant, slender evergreen conifer renowned for its upright, columnar growth habit, making it a favourite choice for formal gardens, hedging, or as an architectural focal point. This slow growing tree features dense, dark green foliage that retains its colour throughout the year, providing year round structure and interest in the landscape. With its Mediterranean heritage, the Totem Cypress adds a classic and sophisticated touch to any garden setting.

Pruning Advice

Routine Maintenance: Minimal pruning is required to maintain its natural shape. Trim any stray or damaged branches in late spring to early summer.

Shaping: To preserve its tidy columnar form, lightly clip once a year. Avoid cutting into old wood, as this may not regenerate.

Hedging: When used in a hedge or screen, trim regularly to maintain an even height and width.
