Looking for a unique and elegant addition to your garden or landscape? Cupressus torulosa, also known as the Himalayan cypress, is a species of cypress found in the Himalayas from 300 to 1800 meters, as well as on limestone in Sichuan, China and Vietnam. This plant boasts bright green or bluish-green drooping branchlets and is native to the Himalayas. What makes Cupressus torulosa so interesting is that it is the only species of Cupressus indigenous to India, forming a link between the true cypresses of the extreme east and those native to Europe. It is moderately hard and very durable, making it a great choice for general construction. Burn the plant as an incense or make use of its leaves. With its intriguing history and unique characteristics, Cupressus torulosa makes a stunning addition to any garden or landscape.
