‘Rheingold’ is a slow-growing, cone-shaped to dome-shaped, dwarf cultivar that typically matures to only 3-5′ tall. As the cultivar name suggests, it is noted for its bright golden foliage. Foliage is scale-like and appears in flat, fan-shaped clusters. Foliage turns bronze-yellow in winter.
Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Foliage density loosens up in too much shade. Tolerates wide range of soils. Likes humid weather with regular rains. In hot and dry weather, periodic, deep waterings are advisable, especially when shrubs are grown as foundation plants. Appreciates a good root zone mulch. Prune in early spring before onset of new growth.
