Blue Ice Cypress
Blue Ice Arizona Cypress (cupressus arizonica blue ice) is a conical tree best known for its cool-toned icy blue foliage. The silvery blue color of this tree truly pops in the landscape, especially in the dead of winter when the landscape is sparse of life and color.
This fast-growing conifer sports spirally arranged sprays of scale-like, aromatic, glaucous blue-gray leaves/needles with white resin. Beyond the breathtaking silver-blue foliage, the Blue Ice Cypress is loved for its trouble-free nature. Specifically, the Blue Ice is known to handle hot and dry conditions like no other!
Ideal conditions for this hardy evergreen tree include full sun and well-drained soils. Even if you don’t have the ideal conditions, there is no need to fear. The Blue Ice Cypress grows in situations where many other plants fail to survive!
The Icy Arizona Cypress is perfect for various planting projects, including hedging, specimen plantings, and mixed yard borders!
