About this item

• Shade & Structure: Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum) is a deciduous conifer that delivers dense, cooling shade and a strong, upright form—ideal as a statement shade tree for yards, estates, parks, and large landscapes.
• Thrives in Wet or Dry Soil: Naturally adapted to floodplains, pond edges, and rain-gardens; tolerates periodic standing water yet performs in average, well-drained soils—excellent moisture versatility for Southern heat and humidity.
• Seasonal Color & Texture: Soft, feathery needles turn rich copper-orange in fall before dropping, then flush fresh green in spring—four-season interest with striking “knees” in wet sites that add unique, architectural character.
• Low-Maintenance & Long-Lived: Durable native U.S. tree with strong pest/disease resistance; moderate to fast growth; responds well to pruning; minimal care once established—reliable for homeowners and landscape pros.
• Impressive Mature Size: Typically reaches 50–70 ft tall and 20–30 ft wide; plant in full sun (6+ hrs) with room to grow; great for windbreaks, property lines, wildlife habitat, and lakeside plantings.
