With such enthusiasm in this forum, I thought we should start a thread on dwarf conifers. We are all so engrossed in perennial alpines, that we often forget that dwarf conifers deserve a place in all rockeries. For us in the north, they provide some colour in the dreary winter months (or even April and May in Newfoundland!). Of course, the larger the rock garden, the larger the dwarf conifer you can accomodate. However, some conifers are very small indeed and can be used even in a trough. So to start the ball rolling I'll share a few of my dwarf conifers. This is Chamaecyparis pisifera 'Sungold'.
