Taxodium distichum - Baldcypress


For a mix of texture add the baldcypress into your landscape. It's sets itself apart from the oaks, pines, and maples that are so common with its soft, feathery foliage. Planted in mass gives the best effect and can be planted about anywhere if you have the space. Grows 50-70 feet tall & 20-30 feet wide. Often planted near lakes or ponds but also a great street tree.
