Hi all, I just received a Chamaecyparis lawsoniana 'Barry's Silver'. If you like unconifer-like conifers this one is a keeper. The foliage tips out into fine filaments that look and feel like white cotton candy! It can take full sun according to my pal even in my area which is great because alot of the bright whities easily burn (the true test will be next summer, if he suffers I'll move him). I have Pink Cotton Candy grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris) colonies growing in the same flowerbed, when they bloom the combination will look like something out of Willy Wonka! Happy Growing!
