Please note!

The Cupressus sempervirens 'Stricta' is a very hardy tree that can grow up to 8 meters high. This Italian cypress naturally grows straight up and usually does not need to be pruned. It is important to know that the tree does not like wet soil and therefore it is advisable to put gravel in the planting hole for good drainage.

Pruning

Pruning the Italian cypress is usually not necessary, as they naturally grow narrow and upward. If pruning is necessary, it is best to do this in early spring before new growth begins. Carefully remove excess branches to maintain the shape of the tree. It is important not to prune the tree too much to prevent it from producing new growth. Only prune when absolutely necessary.

Water requirement

The Cupressus sempervirens 'Stricta' does not like wet feet. Normally watering once a week is sufficient. In warm and sunny weather the Italian cypress can be watered 3 times a week. Ensure good drainage and for the best results fertilize in the spring when the roots are more active.

Power supply

Regular watering is important for the Cupressus sempervirens 'Stricta'. Normally water once a week, but in warm and sunny weather this can increase to 3 times a week. Fertilize the tree in April for optimal growth, when the soil temperature rises. This ensures that the roots are active and absorb nutrients well.

Location

The Cupressus sempervirens 'Stricta' thrives best in dry to moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil in full sun, out of the wind. Provide a sheltered spot in the garden. This beautiful Italian cypress is winter hardy and can reach a height of 8 meters. Pruning is usually not necessary, it naturally grows narrowly upwards.
