The Blue Dwarf Japanese Larch is an absolutely beautiful deciduous conifer featuring exquisite, soft, light green needles that age to blue-green as the season progresses. As cooler temperatures arrive in fall, the foliage turns to a lovely soft yellow. A slow grower that might add 4 inches in growth per year, when fully grown, it reaches about 3 feet tall by 4 feet wide. Its more diminutive stature and soft texture make this easy-to-grow conifer a fine choice as an accent in small garden spaces, home foundation plantings, and Japanese and rock gardens in USDA Zones 4a-8b. Sure to be a conversation piece! 

Because it makes such a statement in the landscape, we think the Blue Dwarf Japanese Larch is most effective when used as a specimen in small garden spaces or in pots, planters, and other containers that can be situated on patios and around other outdoor sitting and living spaces. That said, it can be planted in spaced groupings at least 6 feet apart to keep separation between the plants. It is a fine addition to conifer or rock gardens or beside a large boulder in the landscape. Looks really nice around a garden pond. Be sure not to overcrowd this beauty with larger-growing shrubs!
