Bald Cypress
Best resilient tree for diverse landscape projects.
Bald Cypress is a highly adaptable native tree known for its graceful, feathery foliage and striking copper-orange fall color. It thrives in full sun and is particularly well-suited for wet sites, low spots, and poorly drained areas, making it a practical choice for challenging landscapes. This deciduous conifer offers a unique seasonal display, transitioning from soft green in summer to vibrant autumn hues before shedding its needles for winter. It grows into a substantial shade tree with a strong upright form, providing long-term value, structure, and habitat for wildlife. Once established, it requires minimal maintenance and offers dependable performance for residential landscapes.
