Hi everyone, I've got a nice potential clump style chamaecyparis that I picked up at A nursery. I'm wanting to bend the branches downwards like a juniper to suggest age but I recall reading somewhere that the branches slowly die. Is this the case or is it safe to go ahead
Cheers PeterB

As long as the foliage gets plenty of light, there is no reason why they would die from bending. Go for it!
