Cupressus sempervirens 'Totem' is a very narrow, columnar form of Italian cypress, selected for its compact growth and strong vertical presence. With dense, dark green evergreen foliage held tightly against the stem, it creates a striking architectural feature without taking up much space. Slower growing and easier to manage than traditional forms, this variety is ideal for containers, entrances, and formal or Mediterranean-style planting schemes. Hardy in sheltered UK gardens, it provides year-round structure and definition.
