Quick Overview:

A witches’ broom discovered at the Secrest Arboretum in Wooster, OH. Grows in a globe shape, 3-6" a year. This elegant, weeping Baldcypress offers fine foliage, great fall color and dramatic winter form. Its yellow-green spring foliage darkens to soft sage during summer and then mellows to warm brown and orange in fall. In winter, the deciduous conifer shows off gracefully weeping stems.

Description

Prefers a moist site, but quite adaptable if given full sun. This deciduous, spreading bun produces short, bright green shoots in late spring, maintains good green in summer and takes on a delightful fall gold. Bare winter branches have a rustic, red-brown presence.
