Blue Italian Cypress

The Blue Italian Cypress is a selected form of the classic Italian cypress, which has beautiful and dramatic blue-green foliage, instead of the normal dark-green found in the regular tree. This makes the tree a much more powerful accent, that really stands out in the garden, and it is a superior color choice to the classic form. With its extremely narrow profile – just 4 feet or so wide and up to 60 feet tall or more, this is the easiest way to create those strong vertical accents that enrich your garden design. There are many places they can be used. A pair on either side of a door or entrance is a wonderful addition. Use them to line a driveway, or as a line to accent and define your property boundary.

• Dramatic pencil form – naturally very narrow
• Striking blue foliage all year round
• Beautiful garden accent or screen
• Grows in the hottest and driest locations
• Needs no clipping to stay super-thin and tall

A sunny location in well-drained soil of any kind is best for your Blue Italian Cypress. It has no significant pests or diseases and this tree is extremely drought-resistant and tough even in the hottest and driest locations. It also needs no clipping to keep its very narrow, upright form, so if you want low-maintenance beauty and drama, this is the tree you need. With its unique blue-green foliage color it is sure to be a hit wherever you grow it.
