Taxodium distichum - Bald Cypress

Market price from $44.50 to $124.99

Taxodium distichum is a dignified variety of tree known as the Bald Cypress. This eye-catching specimen, native to the southeastern US, grows up to an imposing 50-70 feet in height with a spread of 20-30 feet, providing a significant presence in your landscape. Its silhouette takes a stately, pyramid-like shape, adorned with feather soft, needle-like leaves. These green strands transform into a captivating coppery-red hue during the fall season, providing a stunning change of scenery. Notoriety extends to the tree’s bark - a remarkable reddish-brown texture that enhances the overall aesthetic appeal. The Bald Cypress exhibits remarkable adaptability, thriving equally well under the dry sun and in waterlogged conditions. Importantly, it is undeterred by disease, resolute against storms, and stands gracefully even in high water areas where its roots form unique 'knee' protrusions. Robust and elegant in structure, the Taxodium distichum can enhance the richness of your exteriors, adapting to diverse landscaping needs.
