Experience the majesty of Cupressus sempervirens var. horizontalis, commonly referred to as Horizontal Italian Cypress. This stunning evergreen conifer captivates with its broad crown and horizontally spread branches, offering a distinctive silhouette that adds elegance to any landscape. Standing tall at 45-65 ft, its dense, dark green, scale-like leaves provide year-round texture and beauty. Native to mountainous regions of northern Iran, Turkey, Crete, and Cyprus, and widely naturalized across Mediterranean landscapes, it thrives in sun-drenched locales, showcasing moderate salt and wind tolerance. Perfect for parks, gardens, and stylized landscapes, this tree is a tribute to Italian countryside charm and even graces parts of southern California. Hardy to USDA Zones 7-8, it becomes increasingly drought-tolerant with age. Its aromatic, durable wood is ideal for cabinetry, offering natural moth-repellent properties. Horizontal Italian Cypress is a lush, low-maintenance accent or screening choice, with mature cones that open during forest fires, releasing seeds that germinate in nutrient-rich ash.
