Cedrus atlantica Bush

Origin: Algeria, Morocco. Majestic conifer with conical-upright habit. The top of the tree remains upright for a long time and then when it gets old it widens out horizontally and flattens; the lateral branches which ascend when young are almost horizontal on older plants. Evergreen needles, rigid, not very sharp, dark green sometimes bluish. Cones: hollow nest shape, 6-10cm long. It adapts to different types of soil, even calcareous, but not too moist. Requires special care and attention when being transplanted.
