Hi Maria. Please provide me some broader perspective for how you come about asking a question about the habit for a Dwarf Cryptomeria? Are you thinking of planting such an evergreen? How large of a space do you have to work with? What is your sun and shade condition? Dry or moist? How is your soil? There are many varieties of Cryptomeria, but the one truer dwarf form I plant most is Cryptomeria japonica Globosa Nana. Handles a wide range of conditions and deer seem.to leave it alone. Feel free to give it a Google search. Thank you, Jay Eriv, Landscape Designer at GROUNDS KEEPER. Don't keep up with the Joneses. Impress them!

Thank you. Area is in full sun. Can this type be kept trimmed to stay about 2’x2’?
