#ProPlantTips for Care
Vintage Gold prefers full sun or very light shade, in well-drained soil and prefers humid environments. In hotter climates, choose a more protected location with a bit of afternoon shade to avoid any scorching that can occur. In colder climates, if winter winds are bitter and strong, choose a location that protects the branching from the drying northern winds. Plant in a well-drained site with moderate moisture access.
Your Vintage Gold will be a relatively low-maintenance Hinoki False Cypress, and if any pruning is needed, it is recommended to trim back the new growth of the current season and remove any dieback. Higher on the deer resistance lists, in high deer pressure areas, it's recommended you spray with a deer repellant.
- Full Sun & Afternoon Shade
- Well-Drained Soil
- Moderate Moisture Needs
- Protect From Extreme Afternoon Sun & Drying Northern Winter Winds
- Prune If Needed In Spring
- Deer Seldom Bother These
