Conifers such as this provide year round colour, but are especially valuable for the sunshiny feel they bring to gardens in winter. The foliage looks especially good when a solitary specimen stands out against a background of dark foliage. ‘Limelight’ makes a great hedge or tall screen too. Try underplanting with hellebores for a great show in late winter and early spring. Interplanting with blue flowered summer shrubs can create a Mediterranean feel - the casual elegance of Plumbago ‘Royal Cape’ with the formal shapes of a row of Cupressus ‘Limelight’ makes a great combination.
