  1. JAPANESE CEDAR

  2. WHAT IS JAPANESE CEDAR ? Cryptomeria japonica, sometimes known as Japanese cedar trees, are gorgeous evergreens that get prettier with age. They grow into a lovely pyramid shape when they are young, but as they get older, their crowns broaden even more to resemble a thin oval. The tree's spreading branches will eventually descend toward the ground from a straight, tapering stem as it matures. Read on for additional details on Japanese cedar trees, including care instructions.

  4. Japanese Cedar plantation Select a spot for your Japanese cedar planting where the soil is moist, acidic, and well-drained. Japanese cedar trees prefer full sun, though they may tolerate partial shade. Find a location with some air movement to ward off diseases like leaf blight; nevertheless, stay away from choosing a location that is exposed to strong winds.

  5. Pruning and Care In case you were wondering, caring for Japanese cedar is not difficult. You should water your Japanese cedar during dry spells. Irrigation is essential to their survival and preservation of their best beauty during droughts. The health or structure of the tree does not require annual pruning, but you can remove any dead or broken branches to keep the tree in a lovely shape.

  6. Ornamental elements The Japanese cedar initially has a pyramidal shape, but as it ages, the crown widens to take the form of a crooked, narrow oval. The three-foot-diameter, straight, tapering trunk provides support for branches that spread widely and have drooping branchlets. Branches on mature specimens will be sagging. The reddish- brown bark's all-season attractiveness sheds in broad bands. The short (12-inch), glossy, blue-green needles are spirally arranged, clasping the shoots, and tip toward the ends of the stems, giving the plant the appearance of a "foxtail." The foliage turns bronze in the winter.

  7. Use of Japanese Cedar The Japanese cedar creates a stunning example for windscreens, borders, and groupings on large properties. It makes a good lawn specimen for smaller homes due to its thin canopy and moderately sluggish growth rate. The optimal location for planting is one with moist, acidic, and well-drained soil. It can survive in some arid places, but during a drought, it needs watering. While it prefers direct sunlight, it can tolerate slight shade.

  8. Temperature and Humidity Japanese cedar can withstand both moderate winters and summers and grows well in USDA Zones 5-8. One issue that needs to be kept an eye out for in Cryptomeria japonica is the risk for winter browning. The browning is a result of a process called photoinhibition, which takes place when the tree is subjected to intense light and chilly temperatures. It won't endure clean air and is unable to withstand pollution.
