peeps are surprised these grow in z5 MI ...

i have quite a few.. but none maintain a perfect xmas tree shape ...

care to speculate on its flat top nature??? ...

it isnt supposed to have that tubular form.. is it???? .. fastigate????

i have deer.. but i dont recall seeing any chew marks ...

its spring coloration is sublime ...

Leader die back? You have a Y going on there and then needle drop on the other potential leaders.

Old pic, new pic? Perhaps that top was sticking out of the snow if its a pic from several years ago.

It's supposed to "an upright growing golden form" as Arrowhead Nursery text states.

Google images show Will's plant. Link below.
