Help with my Hinoki Cypress.

[vp999]

My Hinoki started to get some brown area, and these are not the areas where it’s lacking of sun either, right below the new growth tips in most of the cases. I know about the pinching back maintenance on Hinoki but this doesn’t seem to be the case. Any ideas ? Thank you in advance.

Just the time of year.

Is this how the wood naturally lignifies?
Kind of seems so.

i've noticed the same on my first hinoki which i bought this summer, i kinda panicked as well... glad you posted this so i know i'm not the only one.

Thank you, I was getting worried because it’s such a beautiful tree.

The petiole has evolved to be a twig, next it will grow larger to a branch, ad infinitum.
