SLOW GROWING DWARF WITH Round, curly-edged small leaves, DENSE GLOBE... SUPER COOL FOR SMALL GARDENSAn excellent find with the unique history of the species and the same fan-shaped green leaves that turn bright yellow in fall. But "Mariken' stays very small, its thick, spreading branches are loaded with a dense arrangement of foliage. The slow-growing, deciduous conifer makes a high interest architectural feature, a flat, rounded form, for either small garden or container. Extremely adaptable to a wide variety of conditions.
