This is a handsome, slim conifer that is deservedly popular. The foliage is grey-green and takes on distinctly stronger bluer tints in the winter months. It is often planted in small rock gardens where it will soon outgrow the scale although it is height rather than girth that will be the problem. Correctly sited it makes a useful contribution to a garden design with its tightly packed uniform foliage giving strong vertical but contained lines and it shouldn't reach more than 3m (10ft). This is an excellent choice for background planting, especially in the smaller garden where it can protect smaller shrubs from the worst of the weather.
