California Incense-cedar: Calocedrus decurrens

/Home/Garden Basics/Trees/Types of Trees/Evergreen Trees/Cedar Trees/California Incense Cedar Trees

The California Incense Cedar (species: Calocedrus decurrens) is one of quite a few trees that are referred to as cedars. The images in this post are of a tree that I planted about ten years ago (it was from a nursery and was about 7 feet tall at the time). It is quite easy to confuse this tree with the Western Red Cedar if you don't get a good look at the seed cones.
