Taxodium distichum is a long-lived, deciduous, coniferous tree of narrow pyramidal habit when young, broader as it matures, with reddish grooved bark, and distinctive, knobby root growths. Feathery, needle-like, light-green foliage is orange-brown in autumn, and small, green to brown, ovoid cones appear after flowering. Swamp Cypress is known for growing in a wide range of soil conditions, from dry soils to standing, swampy water. It prefers average, medium to wet, slightly acidic, sandy, well-drained soils. It is resistant to frost and can withstand floods and urban pollution. Resistant to wind and suitable for exposed positions. Very resilient tree, generally, pest-free and disease-free. Low maintenance, no pruning required. Taxodium distichum is a wonderful ornamental tree, tough and adaptable to various conditions. It is suitable for urban and industrial areas. Excellent as a specimen plant in parks and large lawns. Perfect for growing near water, even wet and swampy areas.
