Deodara Cedar Cedrus deodara
We gardeners always want to push the envelope -- to grow things where they just don't want to or won't grow. Of the three species of true cedars, native from north Africa to the Middle East and east to the Himalayan region, we naturally want to grow the least hardy of these, the Deodara Cedar. This lovely conical evergreen tree grows to 60 feet tall in about 50 years. But with great age, its lowest limbs will develop into upward growing branches that can make the plant wider than it is tall.
