I really love this shrub and planted one in the front yard. Deer ate it completely and it died, I thought it’s deer resistant plant but in my garden it’s not. Bought another one and planting in the backyard.
Love your videos man. Beginning to try my hand at landscaping my yard and have watched a ton of your videos for tips. Awesome job.
Is there any way you could do a video on trimming these back ? I have purchased many of them and for the most part the majority of them will be left alone. I have two on either side of the garage that need to be pruned a little . Then I have 3 under a window that will need to be kept at 3-4 ft. I love these plants
Thank you Jim- buying 3 this spring and knew I could find information about this plant from you!!!🌳
I just planted 2 of these and going back to get a 3rd. Thanks for your informative video.
Very helpful video. Thank you, Jim, for tips, especially for pruning advice. My Globosa is round and on a long stem. After 5 years grown a lot and obstructing the path, so will use your tips in early spring to shape it back.
Thanks, Jim. Our globosa tripled in size over the last year which is awesome, but, they've overgrown a smaller space near our driveway. Thanks for the tips on how to prune them to keep them "in place".
wow! not sure it's the original size, but tripled is awesome. I read that they only grow 2 inches a year.
Thank you for this video. You need a table so you don't have to hold that heavy plant, lol!
Your video was very informative. We bought 2 of them back in 2020. The problem were having to the center of our bushes are dying out. The center looks like a dead Christmas tree. I emailed my pest control company about it. I’m thinking the technician sprayed it with some kind of pesticide. Is there anything that I can help it or should I just replace them?
I just planted one of these and absolutely love it. I've seen them grow larger than the little ball and they look very interesting. We nicknamed it the "cousin it" plant after seeing a large one in a catalog. Thanks for giving me more information about keeping it happy.
Ha Ha, I just bought two and am trying to think of a nickname
. "Cousin it" is funny.
Thank you for the information about what to add to the soil in clay or sandy situations. A big confidence builder that I can get my plants off to a great start.
I planted one last year and it was doing so well until a tree hit my house. Then the tree guys dropped a heavy branch on it and broke off a number of branches then the roofers put a tarp over it to protect it. Well that ended up burning it. I cut the burnt parts off but wonder if it will grow new branches and fill in?
Thank you so much for your informative videos. We recently planted three dwarf Cryptomeria Globosa Nana. Two are beautiful, but one is turning a yellowish color and has brown foliage on the top tips and some on the bottom tips. They are all planted in the same garden, receiving the same water and sunlight, and the other two are gorgeous and green. Any ideas? Thank you!
Appreciate your videos. We install a lot of drip irrigation and pop the emitters on the root ball. It sounds like you're suggesting to keep the water farther away from the plant to promote root growth.
That makes sense.
This video was quite helpful in my gaining understanding of this plant. I planted several of these a few years ago in a newly landscaped area and they have been low maintenance and beautiful. One of my favorites. Due to an early, very deep freeze last year, almost an entire side of several of these plants turned brown and remained that way for the summer. There is new growth on the brown branches. I would live to save these, but I’m not confident in pruning away all of the brown. It would be a significant portion of the plant and might ruin the shape. Any advice?
Thank you for the info. I am starting a landscaping project at my townhome in Kentucky and saw this conifer at a local garden center. I was so happy to find a conifer that does not bite but is also beautiful.
I need to replace blighted boxwoods in my parterre with either the Dragon Prince or the Globosa Nana. I want to keep them at about 2-3 in height and 2 feet wide. Which of the two (Dragon Prince or Globosa Nana) would you recommend?
I am a new sub. I am hoping to plant this as a foundation plant. I am also new to gardening (yay March 2020!) and don’t know how to prune this so it will stay small (3/4 ft) and keep its loose, more natural shape. Could you help me with this? Maybe do a video? I know this video is older….
Can you train this into a tree form? I picked one up at Lowes that hasn't been taken care of. I love the color!
most informative! You covered all the bases quickly!!!
Could you please create a video on how to prune this plant to keep it small?
I have a cryptomeria japonica tansu in a nursery container and I’m gonna transfer it to a bonsai dish I was told Springtime is the best. What month can I do the thinning/branch removal or reduction? I live in Long Island, New York Thanks
I was given a cryptomeria globosa to bonsai. I know this is an old video and you probably won't respond, but I think it would make a beautiful bonsai. I just don't know much about them, so I was hoping you'd have some advice. Okay, you said it can take some serious pruning after it's well established, but what if I'm keeping it in a pot? I planned on pruning it back and removing some limbs but keeping it in the nursery pot for a while. I planned to repot it in late winter/early spring into a large pot (and slowly work my way down to a smaller pot over the years) then another less intense pruning and wiring after recovering from the repotting. Do you think it can handle it? It's a pretty old tree that was used for cuttings its whole life. I already cleaned up the bottom around the trunk and it seems to be doing very well after that (about 2 months ago) and has probably grown a couple inches since. It was free, but I'd rather not kill it by doing something wrong or doing something at the wrong time. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Would this be suitable for a bonsai?
Globosa Nana Cryptomeria What is an excellent flower pot size. I want to grow in a pot?
Great video, thank you. I planted three of them below a window several years ago and they are beautiful. Unfortunately, I didn't trim them and now they are six-feet tall and blocking my window. Is it too late to give them a big shearing? Can I do it now, in early October? I'm in Central VA, a warm Zone 7.
Very informative. I just picked up 3 of these and would like to put them in pots. Any recommendations?
If majority of limbs are brown after 2 weeks of planting, can it spring back? Also, is watering reallgvgood to much every other day on newly planted cryptomerias?
Thank you for sharing information on this beautiful shrub. This is the best shrub for my place. Can this shrub survive with just couple of hours of sunlight? And what happens if it gets less sunlight than required? TIA
I need to know how to prune it back to bring it down a foot or more...selectively prune or shear ?
I have a full grown Globosa Nana Cryptomeria, will this be hard to transplant?
We have planted our plants about 6 weeks ago. We have had to replant . It turns very limp and start losing its color, then turns Browning’s a day. We have does all that have been instructed. Please advise.
Great video as always!
I put one in a bonsai pot, with a soil mix that isn’t very acidic, i fertilize with organic in spring and fall. But now I’m worried I should have put more bark and Peet in tha mix. Should I repot in spring with something more acidic, or wait for it to show me signs of struggle. It wasn’t labeled as cryptomeria, so I treated like juniper. But maybe it will acidify with time. Just wondering how important acidic soil is for crypto’s
Great video!
Why would my globosa nana grow tall with long needles on the bottom instead of retaining the round shape?
Thank you for the information on the cryptomeria. Mine is new and is turning brown. I don’t want to lose them. Any ideas?
I am having the same issue with mine. Did you ever find an answer or solution? I would appreciate anything you've learned.
Thank you for this great video! I am looking for an everygreen tree that will live happily in a large outdoor pot. Will the Globosa Nana do that? I live in Atlantic Beach, NC.
Yes, that would be a good choice. Good luck with it.
Can an established dwarf cryptomeria japonica "globosa nana" be transplanted?
Will this be good for an above ground planter box that is 12 ft deep? I'm making a planter box and my wife really wanted this plant so no I'm trying to figure out if it will work there?
Will this beautiful plant do alight to in the planters for the front of the house?
I love this plant and I really want one in the front of the house. Sadly, it gets mostly shade in the front of the house in Atlanta, GA. When summer comes around, it may get a little bit of sun, but not a lot. Do you think I can make it work? Will it just not grow as fast or will it die? I want a short, low-maintenance evergreen here that will not grow and block my daughter's window on the 2nd floor of the house. We had to remove the kousa dogwood because it got to big, was scratching her window and the house and was a bit out of control. I love this globes nana cryptomeria and really want to make it work in this eye sore spot in the front of my house. :)
I meant, Globosa Nana Cryptomeria....autospellcheck. haha
If they turn brown but the inside is is still green will it come back if I clip it all down
I’m looking for a hardy evergreen to plant each side my side door that gets full sun majority of the day, would this be a good choice? If not, what are your suggestions?
Very thorough. Thank you.
How do you prune them?
How to apply mulch to newly planted Cryptomeria Globosa ?
I have 5 cryptomeria in my front bed that are about 3 years old, and I love them. They've been really healthy in part shade, until this year. Two have begun turning brown. I cleaned out the beds and realised the shrubs felt really loose. I added compost around all, fertilised with evergreen slow release stakes and added fresh pine needle mulch. Is there anything else I should do?
I have had the same problem. I have to replace 2 and now one more this summer. I love this plant.
What if I want to keep these at about 2 1/2 feet, or right under 3 feet? I just bought a 3 gallon plant.. will it ruin the shape? I love the look and want to plant about 3-4 under my picture window...
+Jana Boyling I think you could keep them as three foot globes for a very long time with no problems.
Thank you!
Does Globosa Nana have any interest as a bonsai specimen? Thanks for your videos, much appreciated.
I'm sure it is being used for that in Japan, but of course they will bonsai anything really
I am, I never post videos, but I’ll try to remember to next time I work on it. It responds well to pruning, and the branching is pretty amazing for a conifer. I put in a brown Chinese pot about 4” deep and I think 15” by 8 or 9. The winter color of foliage matches the pot, I love that little tree.
Great video! I just added one of these to my flower bed in March, it seemed to be doing well, but now the tips are all turning brown evenly around the entire plant. It gets full sun and watered with the rest of the garden every few days. Do you know why, or have any tips on how to save it. This is one of my favorite non flowering additions that I would hate to loose. Thank you in advance!
In my neighborhood they poodle these into an ornamental tree. You can really get a lot of balls out of them.
What are your thoughts on the black dragon Japanese cedar, is it worth growing in zone 7?
+landipan I like them a lot. They will be in a video Tuesday
I look forward to the video!
How deep do the roots grow?
Nothing to worry about on these dwarf cryptomeria. The regular ones get gigantic and would be a concern
SORRY Not deer resistant at all. Had to pull out and relocate because the deer ate them down to the nubs nearly killing them and they were expensive! The witches are also eating the boxwood planted in the same bed!!!
That's really unusual. Especially the boxwoods. They are considered the top of the deer proof list

+linda phill Shearing it in the spring should be fine.
