Deodar Cedar

The Deodar Cedar tree, also known as Himalayan Cedar, is a large, fast-growing evergreen tree with a pyramidal form and pendulous branches. Native to the Himalayas, hence their nickname, these large pyramidal trees can reach heights between 40 and 50 feet tall and widths as large as 30 feet! Their dense form and widespread growth make them ideal for use as a windbreak or privacy screen. Deodars are also extremely popular as focal points in large gardens and landscapes! The light grayish-green needles and upright-facing cones make this a beautiful specimen in the landscape. Beyond its physical beauty, people love the Deodar Cedar for its hearty nature. These blue-green trees are very drought-tolerant and have an aroma that acts as a natural insect repellent. Additionally, they require little to no maintenance to maintain their immaculate pyramid shape. These gorgeous evergreen trees are best suited for USDA zones 7-9. Ideal conditions for Deodar trees include full sun and a well-draining soil medium.
