Description

Arizona Cypress (Cupressus arizonica) brings cool blue-green foliage and a naturally pyramidal form. Give it full sun and sharply drained soil; once established, it’s notably drought-tolerant. Use as a handsome windbreak or privacy screen, or anchor a hot, sunny border with silvery contrast. Minimal pruning keeps its clean lines.
