  • Description

  • Notes

Like the species, this coniferous evergreen can reach a size 25 to 35 feet tall and 25 feet wide, and larger with age. New growth is an attractive golden-yellow, maturing to a golden green. Graceful arching branches give the tree a slight pendulous look. Cedars have lovely cones, emerging bluish when young and aging a reddish brown.
