Taxodium Distichum Cave Hill
Common Name: Cave Hill Bald Cypress
Cave Hill bald cypress is a slow-growing dwarf selection with a dense, rounded crown and soft green to blue-green needles. Its foliage takes on yellow-gold or copper-bronze tones in fall before dropping. Plants are often grafted onto a taller trunk, so the graft height affects their overall size.
Grow in full sun with moist soil. It makes a small specimen or an accent in a mixed border.
