Port Orford Cedar

Overview

The Port Orford Cedar (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana) is a majestic, evergreen conifer with a pyramidal shape, reaching up to 150 ft tall and 6 ft in diameter. Its drooping branches hold dense, scale-like, bluish-green foliage exuding a pungent aroma. Ideal for large landscapes, it requires well-drained soil. Hardy in zones 7-9, it brings elegance and year-round interest, albeit susceptible to root rot if waterlogged.
