Sargent’s Weeping Hemlock is a broad, spreading evergreen with weeping branches, that will reach 5 feet tall and 10 feet wide relatively quickly, maturing to as much as 30 feet across. It has horizontal or trailing branches covered in dark-green needles, and it forms an incredibly beautiful and picturesque specimen for your garden. Plant it out on a lawn, among boulders, at the top of a wall, or on a slope. It can be supported to create a taller form, or left to grow lower and wider.

- Cascading stems from horizontal branches
- Ideal on lawns, or trailing over walls and down slopes
- Vigorous and easy to grow
- Outstanding collector’s plant
Hardy in zone 4, Sargent’s Weeping Hemlock will grow everywhere from full sun to light full shade. It grows in most soils, preferring moist but well-drained acidic soil but very adaptable. It doesn’t thrive in polluted urban gardens. It is generally free of important pests or diseases, and is not at all difficult to grow. Allow sufficient space when planting for its mature dimensions.
