Taxodium distichum
This deciduous conifer is perfect for that wet spot" where few trees would survive. It has a reddish brown bark and branches that spread out and up. Its pretty foliage is fresh green in spring, turning bronze before dropping in fall. This tree grows 50-100 cm a year and in 10 years it may reach 5 m high and 2,5 m wide. Very beautiful and distinctive. Lumber is highly prized for its decay resistance. The shaggy bark and bold architecture of its branching lend striking winter interest. Trouble-free, easy to grow."
