Hesperocyparis (syn. Cupressus) sempervirens var. Horizontalis, or Horizontal Italian Cypress, is a majestic evergreen conifer that brings the timeless charm of the Mediterranean landscape to your garden. Unlike its columnar counterpart, this variety found in the wild features a broad, spreading crown with horizontal branches that craft an open, expansive silhouette, ideal for those seeking an impressive, yet relaxed garden feature. Standing at 45-60 ft tall, it boasts dense, dark-green foliage composed of scale-like leaves, providing year-round texture and structure. Its gray-brown bark and small, rounded cones add to its visual appeal. Perfect for USDA Zones 7-10, this resilient tree thrives in well-drained sandy loams under full sun, tolerating some drought conditions once established. With aromatic foliage, Horizontal Italian Cypress is a testament to natural elegance, ideal for parks and gardens aiming for a unique and striking growth form.
