Bald Cypress
Taxodium distichum
The Bald Cypress is a majestic, long-lived deciduous conifer known for its feathery, bright green foliage, fluted trunk, and distinctive knees that develop in wet soils. Thriving in full sun, it grows well in both wet and well-drained conditions and is highly tolerant of flooding. With its stately form, soft texture, and adaptability to diverse environments, Bald Cypress is ideal for lakesides, rain gardens, large landscapes, and naturalistic plantings requiring a resilient, visually striking tree.
