Swamp Cypress

Taxodium distichum

A deciduous conifer from the everglades, where its lacy needle-like leaves are often covered in Spanish moss. The fine feathery foliage is bright green in spring and summer, colouring to brilliant orange in autumn. An ideal specimen tree that loves humid summers – it even thrives in water, just like a lotus. Perfect for moist or inundated areas, such as dams or lawns that don’t dry out. Medium growth rate.
