This characteristic, combined with its compact growth habit, renders it a favored ornamental tree in gardens and landscapes.
Its visual appeal makes it a highly desirable specimen plant. Beyond aesthetics, the relative hardiness and adaptability of this conifer contribute to its widespread adoption. Its introduction and subsequent propagation have broadened the palette of available evergreen trees, offering unique textural and color elements for landscape design.
