Pollination Info
Gold Mop Cypress Pollination Info
The Gold Mop Cypress, also known as Chamaecyparis pisifera Golden Mop, is a non-flowering plant. This means that it does not produce flowers for pollination. Instead, the Gold Mop Cypress is typically propagated through cuttings or by division.
When propagating the Gold Mop Cypress through cuttings, it is best to take cuttings in the spring or early summer. Cut a 4-6 inch section of stem from the plant, making sure to include several nodes. Remove the lower leaves from the cutting and dip the cut end in rooting hormone before planting in a well-draining soil mix.
If propagating through division, carefully dig up the plant and separate the root ball into sections, making sure each section has enough roots to support itself. Replant the divided sections in a new location or container with well-draining soil.
It is important to note that the Gold Mop Cypress is a slow-growing plant and may take some time to establish itself after propagation. With proper care and maintenance, it will eventually grow into a beautiful and vibrant addition to any garden or landscape.
