Chamaecyparis, commonly known as false cypress, is a genus of coniferous trees and shrubs native to East Asia and North America.

The Chamaecyparis genus includes several species, such as Chamaecyparis obtusa (Hinoki cypress) and Chamaecyparis lawsoniana (Lawson's cypress).

Chamaecyparis trees are prized for their attractive foliage, which ranges in color from green to blue-gray, depending on the species.

In landscaping, Chamaecyparis is often used as a specimen tree, hedge, or screen due to its dense growth habit.
