About the Bald Cypress
:
The Bald Cypress, Taxodium distichum, is a lofty,
deciduous conifer of slender, pyramidal habit. A
stately tree, for parks, yards. Landscapers and land
owners use this tree in wet areas. Bald Cypress
trees have moderate water requirements. In swamps,
it develops large flares at the base of the trunk,
the so-called "cypress knees".
In the fall, the Bald Cypress leaves may turn a
rich brown. The needle like leaves are dark green in
the spring and summer. The "cypress knees" only
develop when grown in or near water for most of the
year. This species is very adaptable to wet and dry
sites and thrives in many soil types |
