Cupressus sempervirens

Italian Cypress

Classic tall spires create skyline silhouettes and often define entries. Cypress also do well when planted close together and can be used to create large free standing green walls to block views with minimal depth. They are particularly prone to mite damage, which is prevented by regularly hosing down the entire surface area of the tree.
