Notes
'Spg-3-014' Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica 'Spg-3-014') is a tree for specimen planting, hedges, and privacy screens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. It grows at a moderate rate and keeps a conical shape. It is evergreen and tolerates salt.
Pairs well with Birch, Dogwood, and Ostrich fern.
