Carolina Sapphire Arizona Cypress – 7 Gallon Pot (4-5′)

Other Common Names: Arizona Cypress, Carolina Sapphire Cypress

---

A fine alternative to Leyland Cypress, the Carolina Sapphire Cypress, also known as the Arizona Cypress, is the fastest growing coniferous evergreen tree we offer. Perfect for tall privacy screen plantings, it features very attractive silvery mint-green foliage that provides unique year round color and texture in the landscape. Specimens in our gardens have grown to to 30 feet tall and 10 to 12 feet wide in as few as 7 years. Combines beautifully with Leyland Cypress, evergreen Magnolias and many other types of evergreen trees in privacy screen plantings.

Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7a, where this Cypress variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring. That said, it will need a well-lit indoor location.
