Finally, here's a picture of the way I like to use chamaecyparis.
I have so much shade in my yard from overhead trees,
it's nice to have an evergreen which will tolerate part shade.
Gives a nice contrasting texture to a light-shady area.
This is a small cultivar c.o. Nana. You can barely see him to the left in the photo.
It's about 10yrs old, despite it's small stature.
It's perfectly happy nestled between an epimedium and dwarf sweet flag
(acorus gramineus Minimus Aureus).
I think he's cute!

Edited to request you to ignore the weeds!
