Incense Cedar is a beautiful native American tree from California that grows well across the country from west to east. It grows 12 inches a year when young, and it becomes a tall column 30 to 50 feet high, but only 8 to 10 feet wide. This makes it exceptionally useful in small and medium-sized gardens, where it will provide height, without growing very wide. It can be planted on a lawn, or in beds of trees and shrubs. It can form part of a collection of conifers or be planted as a narrow screen. Its soft foliage is aromatic of cedar, and planted in a row it clips easily into a beautiful hedge. It is very easy to grow, yet extremely handsome, with great ‘presence’ and charm.

  • Remarkable foliage with 5 narrow, hanging thread-like lobes
  • Soft, fern-like foliage in rounded sprays
  • Wonderful lawn specimen
  • Grows well in many different soils
  • Needs no maintenance at all for timeless beauty

Plant Incense Cedar in a sunny or lightly shaded area. It grows well in a wide range of soils, growing best in fertile and well-drained soils. It is hardy in sheltered areas of zone 5 and grows best in zones 7 and 8. It has no significant pests or diseases, and it is moderately drought tolerant when well established. New plants should be kept moist for the first few years.
