Larix sibirica 'Cloquet' / Cloquet Siberian larch

Larix siberica 'Cloquet' is dwarf to miniature selection of Siberian larch with delicate, uniform branching and light green deciduous foliage. After 10 years of growth, a mature specimen will measure 12 inches (30 cm) tall and wide, an annual growth rate of around 1 inch (2.5 cm).

This cultivar originated as a witch's broom found in the early 2010s by Josh Horky of Duluth, Minnesota, who found the original broom in University of Minnesota Cloquet Forestry Center, Cloquet, MN.
