Notes: This really neat tree scared the heck out of us the first year that
it was in our garden. In the fall/winter all of the needles turned "dead
brown" ... we were sure that the tree had died. Luckily, Art was too lazy
to take it down that fall and much to our delight and surprise, the next spring
it flushed out in it's wonderful soft greenery. Chuckle .. so "that's the
reason" they call it a Bald Cypress !!

| 6/15/00 The tree shown was about 7' tall when we purchased it three years
ago. It is now about 12' tall. The soft, subtle shades of the green needles agains
the rough, reddish bark is a wonderful, cooling sight. |
