A handsome evergreen with blue, bluish-green or light green foliage, ‘Glauca’ atlas cedar is perfect for specimen planting where it can grow without being crowded since the tree looks its best when branches are left on the tree to the ground. This shows off the wonderful irregular, open pyramidal form with lower branches spreading about half the height. It grows rapidly when young, then slowly, reaching 40 to 60 feet tall by 30 to 40 feet wide. The trunk stays fairly straight with lateral branches nearly horizontal.
Best grown in deep, well-drained, acidic loams in full sun. Drought tolerant once established.
