The Cedar of Lebanon (Cedrus Libani) tree is a majestic evergreen tree, renowned for its historical and biblical significance. Once abundant in the wild, it has become rare, making it a valuable addition to any collection for conservation and heritage purposes. This magnificent tree can grow up to 40 meters (130 feet) tall, featuring a wide, tiered canopy with a distinct flat top. Its needle-covered branches and large cones give it a prehistoric appearance.

Perfect for larger gardens, lawns, or parks, the Cedar of Lebanon provides ample shade in the summer months and thrives in full sunlight for uninhibited growth. It is particularly striking when planted in isolation, allowing its grandeur to shine. The oldest recorded specimen in Britain was planted in 1638 at Wilton House, adding a layer of historical intrigue to this exceptional tree. Ideal for those seeking a standout feature in their landscape, the Cedar of Lebanon is sure to be a focal point of beauty and heritage.

The Cedar of Lebanon requires a special spot because once planted does not take kindly to being transplanted..  A giant of a tree that can grow up to 100ft tall with a spread of 60ft. Well drained soil and in full sun. Plant well away from your home. Can handle both cold and warm conditions but thrives in a good hot summer, so plant in a sunny position. It is best to fertilise your Cedar of Lebanon from end of winter through to the end of spring using all purpose fertiliser with slow release.  After planting, keeping the soil consistently moist is crucial, especially during the initial establishment period. Water your Lebanon cedar once a week, allowing the top layer of soil to dry slightly between watering. Once established, this tree is quite drought-tolerant, but it will benefit from watering during prolonged dry spells. Does not require pruning unless any branches are damaged.

All our stock is “lifted” to order, which means that they are “lifted” and packed the same day and sent off so delivery is made the following day hence you receive them as fresh as possible. They are well packed and they are able to stay in the bags they arrive in for up to 7/10 days out of any frosts but it is advisable to plant bareroot trees as soon as possible. We are able to give you a suitable delivery date after the order has been placed when we email your order of acknowledgement to you. Unlike other nurseries who usually say within 3-5 days we can give you a definite day.

As soon as we receive your order we can usually send these out within the week. We use a courier and a signature will be required UNLESS you inform us (in the comments box) of where you would like your goods left safely should you not be at home. It is possible to select a day (apart from week-ends and Fridays) when ordering.
