Cedrus atlantica glauca 'Pendula'
With age, this distinctive weeping variety of Blue Atlas Cedar will produce horizontal branches that spread to 12' wide, dropping a curtain of pendant branchlets to the ground. Its drooping habit and height can be controlled by deft pruning of the central leader; it even takes to espalier.
Note: We also carry the 'Serpentine' form of this variety -- achieved by careful pruning -- which makes an interesting 6-10' patio tree.
*Deer Resistant*
