Description
A compact variety of the dawn redwood, 'Chubby' offers a smaller stature and denser form compared to typical specimens. With soft, bright green foliage turning yellow in autumn, it makes an excellent choice for smaller gardens or urban settings. It prefers full sun to part shade and moist, well-drained soils to maintain healthy growth. Its moderate growth rate and manageable size make it appealing for cautious gardeners seeking a deciduous tree with seasonal interest.
