Cedrus libani Flower with the colour often persistingPerhaps the most iconic tree of churches, cathedrals, and other heritage spaces. Pyramidal when young, but developing over many years into an imposing (or is it sheltering?) flat topped, wide spreading tree of open habit. Foliage is green or greyish green. Cones 8 10cm. A deep rooting species which tolerates most types of soil, provided they are free draining. A great tree for hot dry spaces.
