Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Chamaecyparis pisifera 'Squarrosa Pygmaea'. Chamaecyparis [...] Pisifera Var. squarrosa pygmea. A very compact, gray globular form. A true dwarf. Very slow growing. 75c-$1.00. [from the Carl Starker Gardens 1940 Rock plants and iris catalog, p. 14.] Listed in den Ouden as syn. for C. pisifera 'Squarrosa Minima' [but the International Conifer Register, Part 3 (1992) muddies the waters a bit and suggests that this name might be valid for use with certain stable clones that do not revert to the putative sport parent, 'Squarrosa Intermedia'. -SBL]
