Now Cupressus vietnamensis.

Where is it growing? It is looking to be hardier than might be expected for its origin, one outside in coastal NE England came through about -6ð or -7ðC last winter without damage.

Yes it must have come from a colder place in the past
interesting to see how the one up in the North East
does.

Thanks very much !
...really appreciate seeing these rare plants !
....looking forward to more :O)

Oddly enough, it has been reported to have survived outside in Russia too. So far it is doing great here in the SE US (ABG has it) - so heat isn't a problem for it either. It has coned there too.

That would be no problem in Sochi on the Black Sea coast, where they can also grow species like Phoenix canariensis

I will have to check Resin, but I thought it was in a quite cold place - not on the Black Sea. There are botanists in Moscow studying Vietnamese plants and it might have been in a very protected spot there. I will try to find out.

Cool conifers, thanks a lot.
