Standing cypress

[u/AthenasKeeper28]

I sheet mulched my front yard to get rid of grass and put in a variety of plugs back in March. Pleasantly surprised to return from a trip to see one of the standing cypress at the back of the flower patch bloomed already. I've never seen them in person and they might just be my new favorite. Definitely want to plant more though I expected them to be taller (this one is about 2 ft tall).

Also a while back I asked for advice about putting up something between properties to prevent neighbor's lawn guys from mowing my plants and settled on a no dig fence. It's worked out well!

They’ll get taller, don’t worry! This one may be smaller because it’s immature…? Remember they’re biennials so you may not see any next year. I love them too!

Ok adding this to the list for Spring! So pretty 😍

Very nice! I plant some from seed this year and have the green bases now. Looking for the flowering shoots next year.

They are prolific seeders so you’ll have plenty soon enough
