Looking to display a crippsii near a koi pond

Posted on July 16, 2006

Question:
Hello Chuck
Looking to display a crippsii near a koi pond Would like to keep the size to about 8', can this cypress be topped off without any adverse effect. Also looking to plant a Salix "hakura Nishiki, heard that roots may be a problem. Any truth to that - looking to keep that plant controled at about 4x3 Any info would be helpful
Thanks Penny

Answer:
Sorry, have not had experience with either of those plants. Try looking it up in Micheal Dirrs Woody landscape plant manual.
