One of the most majestic of all trees, and extensively planted as part of the enduring landscape of some of our grandest stately homes and estates.

It is slower growing than the Atlas Cedar, conical when young before assuming the flat topped and tiered habit of maturity fo which it is well known.

It was intriduced to England around the time of the Civil War, and it has large, barrel shaped cones and green or grey/green foliage.

It thrives on most soils.

Mature Height: 20m+
