Discover the majestic beauty of Cupressus cashmeriana, commonly known as Bhutan Cypress or Kashmir Cypress, a stunning tree native to the eastern Himalayas of Bhutan and northeastern India. With its picturesque, weeping branches and elegant blue-gray foliage, this coniferous giant grows at elevations ranging from 4,100 to 9,100 ft, creating breathtaking views in gardens and parks worldwide. As Bhutan's national tree, Bhutan Cypress stands as a symbol of spirituality, often found near Buddhist temples, revered for its serene presence and cultural significance.

Rising to heights of 40-60 ft (some getting up to 100+ ft) with trunks up to 9 ft in diameter, this cypress is a marvel of natural architecture. Its pendulous branches hold scale-like leaves, and its dark green seed cones, maturing to a rich brown, add visual interest year-round. Popular in horticulture for its ornamental value, Cupressus cashmeriana's form and color, enhances landscapes with their unique aesthetic. Recognized with the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit, it is a treasured addition to any temperate garden setting.
