The swamp cypress is a bright, fresh green, bluntly conic crown until it darkens and in November it turns foxy-brown. The slender leaves, 2cm long, spread on either side of the young shoots and both are shed in autumn. Only trees planted by water or in flooded ground will grow the woody termite-hills, known as ‘knees’ or pneumatophores.

Many of the best Swamp Cypress grown stand beside lakes or streams and in the UK. They rarely reach a height of over 30 metres. Best grown in a line or grouped together as with other conifers can look bare and untidy.

Within 24 hours of placing your order, we will contact you to confirm an exact delivery date. Most orders are delivered within 5 working days. Your plants will be freshly lifted and packaged the day before dispatch to ensure they arrive in the best possible condition.

If you have a preferred delivery date please use the comments box and we will try our best to accommodate this (not available at weekends).

Although items can remain in their packaging for 7–10 days if kept frost-free, we recommend planting bareroot trees as soon as possible after delivery.
