Chamaecyparis lawsoniana ‘Albovariegata’

Chamaecyparis lawsoniana 'Albovariegata' is a rounded conical selection of Lawson cypress with loose, open branching. Foliage is gray-green in color, and consistently splashed with white variegation. After 10 years of growth, a mature specimen will measure 7.5 feet (2 m) tall 4.5 feet (1.5 m) wide, an annual growth rate of around 8 inches (20 cm).

This cultivar originated as a seedling selected in 1881 James Veitch & Sons in Coombe Wood Nursery, United Kingdom. It's quite likely that many similar cultivars from the 1800s are synonymous with this conifer.
