Yoshino Japanese Cedar (Cryptomeria japonica 'Yoshino')
Yoshino Japanese Cedar (Cryptomeria japonica 'Yoshino') is a tall, fast-growing evergreen conifer valued for its soft, feathery texture and strong upright form. This elegant selection creates a graceful privacy screen or living wall, offering year-round structure and beauty in both formal and naturalistic landscapes.
Distinctive Features
'Yoshino' features dense, bluish-green foliage that softens its vertical presence while forming a symmetrical, pyramidal shape as it matures. The foliage may take on a bronze or purplish hue during winter, adding subtle seasonal interest. Its growth is rapid under good conditions, often reaching 30 to 40 feet tall and 15 to 20 feet wide, making it a favorite for hedging, windbreaks, and large-scale plantings.
Growing Conditions
- Sun Exposure: Full sun to partial shade
- Soil: Moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soils
- Water: Moderate; prefers consistent moisture during establishment

Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Stately form and evergreen foliage make a dramatic centerpiece
- Privacy Screening: Dense branching forms an effective year-round barrier
- Windbreak: Tall, sturdy structure protects more delicate plantings
- Formal Hedges: Can be shaped for symmetry along property lines or drives
- Mixed Borders: Contrasts well with flowering shrubs and deciduous trees
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering: Maintain even moisture during the first growing season; becomes more drought-tolerant with maturity
- Pruning: Minimal pruning needed; shape selectively to encourage dense growth
- Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring
- Mulching: Mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and regulate temperature
- Protection: Avoid prolonged dry spells and poor drainage, especially in hotter climates

Great ball, bad rope
Size: Medium, Number of Items: 1, Size: Medium, Number of Items: 1
My dog and I love the starmark ball on a rope tug toys. While this is one of the best tug toys we have found, I am continually disappointed with the quality of the rope. The plastic sleeve comes off the first day, and after that the stitching begins to weaken until the rope ends come apart and the rope slides out of the ball. Is there a way to improve this design so that this toy lasts longer? My dog is not left alone with the toy, it is only used as an interactive tug toy as a training reward.
I am updating my review now several months later. I reinforced the rope with a paracord braid and the toy now lasts a very long time. My dog and I play with this toy everyday on our morning hike. He is a large German Shepherd with high ball drive. He carries this ball in his mouth several miles on our morning hike. We play fetch in the fields near our home and in the lake beyond the fields with this toy every day. This toy is his reward in obedience training and we play a lot of tug with it every day. Reinforcing the handle has made a huge difference as the toy lasts and lasts now with the improved rope. Great ball, we will always have a collection of them at our house!

Great for training and play!
Size: Medium, Number of Items: 1
My German shepherd love this toy! Great to take on walks with you as light weight and can fit in your pocket. Stands up to the toughest of play. Great as reward toy for training in place of treats! We always have one on hand at home or out and about!

Great for big dogs
Size: Medium, Number of Items: 1
Our pup is now 15 months old (nearly 110 lb and still growing). We got this ball when he was 3 or 4 months old.
GOODS -
- Our pup fetches with extreme drive, and the rope helps him quickly snatch the ball off the ground (versus a tennis ball, in which we are worried he will go head over heels at times)
- Our pup also loves to play fetch in the water, and this ball floats great and again, the rope gives another point to bite onto
- The yellow color is easy to see, even in grass
- Our pup typically fetches the ball, and leaves the rope mostly out of his mouth. So, throwing the ball doesn't result in saliva-covered hands
- It's pretty easy to throw the ball 50', and possible to throw it 100'
- It doesn't roll/bounce, so if you are for example playing fetch on your front lawn and are concerned with a tennis ball rolling into the street, this one alleviates that issue
- Our pup is spoiled and has several balls. This is absolutely his go to ball. We have woken up in the morning before to see him standing next to the bed with the ball in his mouth, asking us to get up and play.
BADS -
- Occasionally when he goes to fetch it, he will step on the rope as he tries to pull up on the ball.
- We have gotten this ball stuck in trees multiple times. In fact, there is one stuck on the roof of our church from playing fetch on the lawn there. :-/ Not a fault of the ball, but if you start whipping it around like nunchucks, it might not go where you want.
- The near max you can through this ball is 100'. And since it doesn't roll/bounce, throw distance is throttled. We often play fetch in a local baseball field, and have no issue wearing him out with this ball. However, if you are planning on throwing a ball the distance of half a football field, you might want to consider something else.
SIZE -
- We purchased both the medium and the large. Even though our pup is huge and can fit a soccer ball in his mouth, he still prefers the medium. It's easier for him to get in his mouth and breath while running back. The medium is the size of an orange, whereas the large is the size of a grapefruit.
DURABILITY -
- We have gone through about 4 of these balls, BUT this is because we lost 3 of them. We believe he dropped one out of the car window while we were driving, one is on the roof of our church, and I forget about the other one. On the first one we had, the stitching behind the black tape was down to a few threads after about 5 months. Given duration we use these balls (every day) and the joy he gets from them, I feel the durability is good for the price.
- We do play tug with the ball at times, and no issues there
Enjoy!

Good but better options out there.
Good ball, but is a cheaper version of the Foamster sold online. The rope is cheap and comes apart, and can be abrasive to a dogs mouth. The Foamster uses a higher quality ball and are more durable and use grippy biothane straps rather than cheap rope. They are also made to order in the USA with lots of fun colors. Worth the extra money if your dog likes these balls.

Fun toy for fetch
Size: Medium, Number of Items: 1
Daisy loves this toy. I found it from her dog trainer, and it makes rewarding her with a quick tug of war and fetch really easy. Also it’s shockingly durable. It looks like foam, but she has not destroyed this one.
