I.D.: Lemon-scented Cypruss?

20 years ago

I bought an un-labeled topiary at Trader Joe's today which appears to be a type of Cypruss. It is light green, almost yellow, with fine, lemon-scented foliage. (almost looks like Colenoma/Breath of Heaven, but it is definitely some type of conifer) Any idea what it is?

Thanks for any info you experts may have!

Cupressus macrocarpa 'Donard Gold' has a distinctive citris or lemony scent with fine textured yellow foliage as you describe.

You should find a photo of it the Iseli site - try their photopages drop down list:
