Description

Its twisted, snake-like trunk, and cascading branches that rain to the ground covered in powder-blue needles, puts the Serpentine Weeping Blue Atlas Cedar in a class all its own, bringing charismatic personality to any landscape it inhabits. A dazzling focal specimen that is sure to bring movement and energy to your landscape!

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing slowly to about 10 feet tall and wide over time, the Serpentine Weeping Blue Atlas Cedar is ideal for use as a focal point specimen in sunny areas, as espalier against a wall, or to mark both sides of an entryway. A fine addition to rock gardens, conifer gardens, wildlife gardens, and Xeriscape gardens (low water needs).

Growing Preferences

The Blue Atlas Cedar is very easy to grow in most any average soil that is well-drained and full to mostly sun. Standing water or constantly soggy or wet soil can be problematic. Maintenance is minimal with minimal pruning required. That said, branches can be removed selectively to achieve a desired size or shape. Exceptionally drought tolerant when established. We’ve seen no insect or disease problems.

Plant Long & Prosper!

I selected this evergreen as a focal interest. Ended up ordering two of them! VERY unusual, no two are alike. Arrived and planted. Already showing new growth buds. I have ordered other products from WBG and they never disappoint in quality of product, care of packing, and planting instructions. Rated 5 Stars

This tree is extremely unique and a great focal part of my front garden. As always, the specimen I received from Wilson Brothers was in great shape – very healthy and great shape!——————————-WBG Reply: Hi Rob, Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review of the Serpentine Weeping Blue Atlas Cedar.
