The cedar of Lebanon has a grand, timeless presence that adds distinction to any landscape. This slow-growing tree typically has a single trunk with many branches that spread out horizontally, spiraling upward as it matures. Its dark-green, inch-long needles grow in clusters, and its barrel-shaped cones stand upright above the branches. Prized for millennia as a symbol of strength, the cedar of Lebanon has been used in the construction of temples, such as Solomon’s, and ships, and is mentioned extensively in ancient texts including the Bible and the Epic of Gilgamesh. It’s an excellent choice for bringing historical significance to your garden.
