Cedrus Atlantica (Glauca Group) ‘Glauca’

‘Glauca’ is an impressive and blue variety of evergreen conifer that develops into a large, spreading tree. The short needles are arranged in small clusters and are silvery-white when young, maturing to blue-green. The purple-brown, upright cones up to 10cm long, mature over a long period and are a permanent feature on mature trees. A true giant of a plant in all senses of the word, this robust plant is native to the Atlas mountains of Algeria and Morocco, and ideally needs space where it can properly develop its magnificent, spreading form.
