Although the species is a native American needled evergreen tree which grows 40′-60’ tall, ‘Techny’ is a compact, broad-based, upright, conical-pyramidal, dwarf cultivar that typically matures to 10′-15’ tall. It is noted for its rich dark green foliage that does not yellow in winter. Foliage is scale-like and appears in flat, fan-shaped clusters. This cultivar is synonymous with ‘Mission’. An excellent hedge plant also used for windbreaks and as an ornamental.
