Sciadopitys verticillata
Japanese umbrella pine
Slow-growing conifer of dense, conical outline, in time 10-20 m tall but only 3-4 m wide. The glossy green needles are thick and gathered in whorls at the shoot tips, like the ribs of an umbrella. Best given an open position where the form can be read from all sides.

About sizes
CLT is a container volume in litres, VRL the same in a decorative red container. M is a field-grown plant lifted with its root ball, MGR the same grown in isolation and wire-balled. RN is bare root, available in the dormant season. T is a full standard and POT a planter. Heights are given as a range in centimetres; trunk girth is the circumference measured at one metre. A larger container is not always dearer: a trained or grafted form of the same volume costs more than a bush, and the form is named on the row.
