One of the more dwarf forms of bald-cypress. This witches'-broom is a slow-growing 2' tall and wide dwarf deciduous shrub that would make a good specimen or addition to a landscape bed. These are typically grafted high onto rootstocks to add ornamental appeal. The blue-green summer needles turn yellow-gold in fall.
