Weeping Blue Atlas Cedar
Cedrus atlantica ‘Glauca pendula’
The Weeping Blue Atlas Cedar is a living sculpture of breathtaking beauty. This extraordinary cultivar takes the iconic blue color of its parent and trains it into a cascading, waterfall-like form. Its long, pliable branches drape and tumble dramatically, and it is often staked to create unique, serpentine shapes. A slow-growing and highly artistic specimen, it serves as an unforgettable focal point in gardens where drama and elegance are desired.
