Cedrus deodara 'Robusta' – Cedrus deodara 'Robusta'

View prices and availability
This is a cultivar with horizontal lateral branches that are irregularly pendulous at the end. The tree grows out very broadly and develops a broad, pyramidal crown. The crown is more open than those of the species. The needles grow in groups, with up to 30 bundled together. They are dark, bluish green and remarkably longer than those of the species and other cultivars: up to 8 cm. The ovoid, upright cones grow singly or in pairs and have a round top. Saplings are particularly sensitive to frost, requiring a sunny site sheltered from wind. Does not thrive well in high-pH soils.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2024.
