A tall, majestic, deciduous conifer with small, bright green, needle leaves that drop in the winter, a wide crown, and cone-shaped “knees” often projecting from submerged roots. Often called the “wood eternal” because of the heartwood’s resistance to decay, the wood of the Bald Cypress is used for heavy construction, including docks, warehouses, boats, and bridges. It is also used in general millwork and for interior trim. Height: 50-70’ Spread: 20-30’
