Black Dragon Japanese Cedar (Cryptomeria japonica 'Black Dragon')

Black Dragon Japanese Cedar (Cryptomeria japonica 'Black Dragon') is a striking dwarf conifer prized for its deep green to near-black foliage and compact, upright habit. This slow-growing evergreen adds bold contrast, refined texture, and architectural structure to gardens and landscapes, particularly in small spaces or as a container specimen.

Distinctive Features

'Black Dragon' features dense, irregular branching and short, dark green needles that take on an almost black appearance in winter. Its dramatic coloration and sculptural form make it a standout year-round. With a mature height of 6 to 10 feet and a narrow spread, it remains compact and manageable, even in tight planting areas.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun Exposure: Full sun to partial shade
  • Soil: Prefers moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soils
  • Water: Moderate; provide consistent moisture during establishment
  • USDA Hardiness Zones: 5 to 9

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Dramatic dark foliage and upright habit demand attention
  • Rock Gardens: Compact form and unique color pair well with stonework
  • Foundation Planting: Adds vertical interest without overwhelming space
  • Container Gardening: Thrives in large planters with proper drainage
  • Japanese-Inspired Landscapes: Complements traditional Zen garden designs

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Keep soil evenly moist during the first growing season
  • Pruning: Minimal; shape lightly to maintain form if desired
  • Fertilizing: Apply a slow-release evergreen fertilizer in spring
  • Mulching: Use mulch to regulate soil temperature and conserve moisture
  • Protection: Shelter from drying winter winds in colder climates

Why Choose Black Dragon Japanese Cedar?

  • Uncommon Foliage Color: Rich, near-black needles add unique depth to any planting
  • Compact Growth: Naturally dwarf form fits in smaller landscapes
  • Architectural Presence: Bold form and color create a strong visual anchor
  • Year-Round Beauty: Evergreen interest through all seasons
  • Focal Point: A dramatic addition that stands apart in any design

Stylish and great value!
Color: Medium Grey, Size: 14
This grey suit was a great find for a school ceremony and will definitely be used again. The neutral color makes it easy to pair with different shirts and ties, and it has a modern, clean-cut look. The jacket and pants fit nicely after a quick press, and the quality was better than I expected for the price. It lost a star only because the waist on the pants needed a slight adjustment, but overall, we’re very happy with it!

Runs big, and fabric may not be same color as picture
Color: Medium Grey, Size: 16, Color: Medium Grey, Size: 16
This suit was a good find for us, as we usually dress up for church, and my 13 yo son often wears suits. He normally wears a size 16, so that’s what we ordered, and in dark charcoal gray. The suit we got was a light, heathered gray that didn’t look much like the one in the picture. It was very wrinkly and thin, and a little scratchy. Also, the sleeves were way too long and the torso cut of the jacket was pretty wide. The pants were very large in the waist, but fit him decently in the length (he’s 5’4” and weighs 90 lbs). Overall the suit looked like it was drowning him, so I would order a size down unless you have a larger child/teen. Because of the ill fit, I haven’t had the chance to see what the suit looks like on him as it’s supposed to, but I guess I’ll return it or wait a year or two until he fills it out a bit more. Not overly impressed with the quality, so I’m not sure I’d pay $55 for this one again.

A good First Communion suit
Size: 6, Color: White, Size: 6, Color: White
This suit looks and feels really nice even though it’s not 100% linen. My son is an average size 7 year old, but I got a size 6 so that the fit would be nice and snug and not loose and baggy. It was the right choice. Comes with a bow tie which is nice, a tie (which is very cheap and poorly made) and a pocket square.

Very stylish💜💜
Size: 6, Color: Light Blue, Size: 6, Color: Light Blue
This little suit for boys is very stylish. I bought it for my grandson for a wedding occasion and it looked very nice. The fabric is not too thick so for the summer wedding it was great. I pick the blue color and it looked fantastic!
