Description
Tsuga canadensis Pendula develops into a broad-spreading evergreen mound with layered branches that sweep outward and hang toward the ground. Short, flat dark green needles create a fine texture, with pale white stomatal bands beneath.
Give it partial to full shade, medium moisture, and well-drained acidic to neutral soil. Shelter it from hot afternoon sun and strong drying wind. The wide weeping form works as a specimen near woodland planting or a shaded foundation.
