Cryptomeria japonica 'Sekkan Sugi', also known as Sekkan Sugi Japanese Cedar, is a truly unique and visually striking cultivar of the Cryptomeria japonica species. The most remarkable feature of 'Sekkan Sugi' is its golden-yellow foliage, which emerges in early spring and persists throughout the year. In the warmer months, the plant maintains its bright, vibrant yellow hue, and as temperatures cool in the fall, the colour deepens and takes on a more rich gold or chartreuse tone. This constantly shifting colour adds depth and dynamic interest to your garden, especially against the backdrop of green or winter hues. Perfect for narrow spaces or as a vertical accent, this variety’s upright, columnar habit offers structure without taking up too much room, as well as being easy to care for, drought-tolerant, and pest-resistant, 'Sekkan Sugi' is ideal for gardeners looking for a hardy, stress-free plant.

Cryptomeria japonica 'Sekkan Sugi' is a beautiful, low-maintenance, evergreen conifer that offers both colour and structure in the garden. Its golden foliage, which changes with the seasons, provides year-round interest, making it a standout feature in any landscape. With its upright, columnar growth habit, it fits beautifully in narrow spaces or as part of a hedge or screen. If you’re looking for a plant that will add elegance, texture, and vibrant colour to your garden throughout the year, 'Sekkan Sugi' is the perfect choice. Add this stunning cultivar to your landscape for a burst of golden beauty and graceful form! Height Up to 4m (13ft). Spread Up to 1.5m (5ft).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only. Named after the Japanese word for yellow – “Sekkan” - Cryptomeria japonica ‘Sekkan Sugi’ creates a strong impression in the landscape with its creamy yellow foliage, which is at its most intense in spring and early summer before maturing to dark green. Grow Cryptomeria plants in moist, but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Choose a position that is sheltered from cold, drying winds.

Live Plants

Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Dobies products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days.
