Description
A Warm Weather Cedar Tree
A warm weather evergreen tree (grow zones 7 to 11), Deodar cedar trees, Cedrus deodara, are known for their interesting branching habit. As with all cedar trees, the pleasing aroma produced by their oils serves as a natural deterrent to pests.
The arching branches grow downward only to sweep upward at the ends. New foliage emerges with a hint of yellow, then matures to green with some subtle blue hues.
Deodar Cedar trees are a very popular choice with professional landscapers wanting a unique, ornamental evergreen tree.
