  • Description

  • Notes

Cedar of Lebanon is a large evergreen conifer, growing 40 to 60 feet tall and 25 to 50 feet wide, though it will do so slowly. It has a pyramidal form in its youth spreading out and becoming more flat topped as it ages. The needles are a dark green; 3-inch long cones are purple-brown; and bark is a warm grey-brown. This is a very larg tree and needs to be planted where it will have ample room.
