Description
Cupressus leylandii ‘Ovensii’ is a vigorous, evergreen conifer known for its rapid growth and resistance to canker. Its attractive dark green, flattened foliage adds density making it a standout performer in functional landscapes.
Thanks to its fast growth and abundant branching, this variety excels as a shelterbelt—especially when regularly trimmed to maintain shape and strength. Consequently, it’s a popular choice for Kiwifruit orchards and other commercial plantings where protection from wind is essential.
Although rarely grown as a specimen tree, ‘Ovensii’ thrives in moist, well-drained soils. However, it does not tolerate poorly drained conditions. Furthermore, it’s notably hardy to wind, reinforcing its reputation as a reliable barrier in exposed environments.
Ultimately, this robust cultivar reaches approximately 10 meters in height and 5 meters in width, creating a bold, practical presence in any rural or commercial setting.
