Cedrus atlantica 'Glauca' Bush
Origin: North Africa. Majestic conifer with wide, pyramidal habit. The main branches are at first ascending and then spread out with age and bend upwards at the ends creating an effect of stately magnificence. Vivid blue-grey evergreen needles, 2-2.50cm long. Numerous, ornamental cones, 6-10cm long, at first yellowish and then brown when mature. Adapts to all types of soil with the exception of soil that is too moist. Tolerates summer heat, dry weather and pollution. At the time of transplanting it must be well staked as the roots are not yet stable. Very effective as a specimen in very large gardens, parks, squares, next to important buildings.
