Cedar - Deodar

Deodar Cedar is a graceful, evergreen conifer known for its soft, silvery-blue needles and elegantly drooping branches. With a pyramidal shape and slightly weeping form, it creates a striking presence in large landscapes, parks, and estate gardens. Native to the Himalayas, this tree is both drought tolerant and cold hardy, thriving in a variety of climates. 

As it matures, it develops an architectural silhouette that makes it ideal as a specimen tree, windbreak, or backdrop in expansive gardens. It's low maintenance and provides year-round texture, color and structure.
