Taxodium distichum

Sidewalk Visibility:
Fair
Public?
No
Diameter:
Conservation Status
Description:
A large, slow-growing, and long-lived tree species that can tolerate a range of growing conditions but prefers hot summers and wet / marshy soil conditions. Prized for its decay resistant lumber and as an ornamental landscape tree.
Notes:
Its large stature is easy to spot from several locations, but a slightly better view can be had from Haynes Street. There are many different cultivars of this species, and this appears to be var. atropurpureum. May be one of the largest in the city and surrounding area.
