The expression "one of a kind" is overused but absolutely correct when describing this plant. 'Varied Directions' breaks the mold with a spreading, sprawling, undulating form that really conforms to any shape you choose. That's because its wavy branches will twist and turn and ultimately cover the ground unless altered by you. As a result you have a breathtaking tree that is really a work of art that grows quickly with a mind of its own to create a masterpiece of form with longish, fresh green colored needles held in tufts along its branches. These needles turn golden brown before they fall off to reveal a specimen that looks even better in the winter months than during the growing season. A real collector's item that is so easy to grow!
