With finely textured feathery growth and a broad conical shape, this striking specimen tree brings year-round colour and structure to larger gardens and landscape settings.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nOne of the standout features of ‘Silver Shadow’ is its seasonal foliage colour. The mature foliage holds a soft grey-blue tone throughout the year, while fresh spring growth emerges with an almost silvery-white appearance that can brighten the entire tree. The layered branching and softly pendulous foliage create movement and texture in the landscape, especially when planted as a standalone feature against darker garden backgrounds or open lawn areas.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThis Kashmir Cypress is best used as a specimen tree where its graceful form can be appreciated from a distance. Its naturally elegant habit suits larger gardens, cool-climate landscapes and collector plantings. Over time, it develops into a substantial ornamental conifer with strong architectural presence while still maintaining a soft visual appearance compared to more rigid conifers. It pairs particularly well with maples, rhododendrons and other cool-climate ornamental trees and shrubs.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMature size: approximately 5 metres high × 3–4 metres wide after 10 years\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare \u0026amp; Growing Tips\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPlant Cupressus cashmeriana ‘Silver Shadow’ in a full sun to lightly shaded position with protection from strong drying winds.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPrefers moist, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter.
