Hi Ireena

Yes Thujopsis dolabrata 'variegata' reverts when it
gets older.Whats the other Thujopsis next to it?

It is the same - Variegata - just close up and with bright light... It is the pity, that it reverts, but still it is beautyfull:)

Ireena

Ireena you have some interesting conifers in your
collection do you have other Thujopsis cultivars?

Now, unfortunately it is the only one. I was afraid of the cold resistance. But my Hiba is happy, I think:) Your 'Krugers Finding', 'Decumbens', 'Aurea' are fabulous!!! Good envy from me......:)

Ireena

I was hoping more of you would comment and post photos
of your Thujopsis but so far very quiet.

For you dwarf conifer lovers
Thujopsis dolabrata 'Melbourne Gold'

{{gwi:614375}}

I have only one to share, but I hope others have more rare ones to show!
Thujopsis dolabrata 'Nana' (It seems to become a yellowish tint in winter)

-Sam

Sam, your yellowish 'Nana' is much nicer to look at then the 'Melbourne Gold' which isn't worth the "gold" part in it's cultivar name, it's more of a light coloured green.
I got rid of it several years ago for that reason.

I do like your winter yellow one, which is differend because the normaly seen this cultivar is green coloured the whole year.
Maybe you found yourself a new cultivar...
Get it propagated and keep us informed in the future.

Thujopsis dolobrata "Melbourne Gold" Not very yellow.

Sam

The plant you show as 'Nana' is 'Laetevirens' 'Nana'
is much tighter in habit.Edwin I sent you a photo
of Thujopsis dolabrata 'Latifolia' can you post it
please.

Here is a photo from an old conifer book I have of a compact Thujopsis its not Thujopsis dolabrata var hondae
but maybe Thujopsis dolabrata Pygmaea???

garden by Tom Cox.

Euan, your pics looks more as a Thuja to me.
It's foliage is to fine for a Thujopsis.
Normaly seen the leader structure is open, in this case it's to dense.
Also it's colour doesn't fit, Thujopsis colour is a dark shiney green, while this one shows a light green dull colour...
Do you have a close up pic as well?

Edwin

Its a Thujopsis as Tom knows his conifers he sent
me a close up of the foliage.

Thujopsis dolabrata 'Elegans' old cultivar from Germany

Do you know Tom personaly?

Edwin

Email Tom.

and to be introduced in 2013

Henk

Excellent yellow Thujopsis, Henk!

-Sam

I contacted Derek some years ago about Solar Flare and now I hope there will be soon available plants in the trade.

Beautiful juwel,Henk!

Thujopsis dolabrata 'Cristata' photo taken by Tom Cox

{{gwi:614384}}

I don't see any fasciations, or are they in the ground at it's roots...?

No it doesn't have any fasciations but the branch
structure is different.

Yeah, it's structure is differend...
But, no fasciations is not worth the cultivar name 'Cristata'.
By using this cultivar name it will get false expectations when buying it without seen a pic in advance...

I agree it needs a name change 'contorta' would be better
however it was found by Ansorge so can it be renamed?

Euan, renaming can't take place because it's in cultivation for a while.
It seems that some nurseries in the U.S. are growing it and have spread it for several years.
By renaming it, confusions will arise which we've to avoid always...

Here is a larger plant
