Mature Blue Atlas Cedar Specimens
This photo shows the beautiful color and growth habit of fully mature Blue Atlas Cedars. As you can see here, these beauties can reach a good height - up to 60 feet.

Branch With Male Cones
A couple excellent shots of the needle arrangement on mature branches, along with mature male cones. Notice the way that the cones are held upright - very nice.

Branch With Female Cones
Notice the difference between the male & female cones. Even though they have a very different shape & structure, they are both held upright on the branches.

Open Branching Habit of Mature Tree
Very rigidly held branches which grow in a relatively "open" habit. Branches are covered completely with beautiful silvery blue needles - yet are arranged in a manner that allows light to penetrate all throughout the entire tree. Allows you to see all the way into the very interior sections of the tree, which is usually just as striking as the exterior portions.

Branch / Needle Comparison
Here you can see the distinctive differences of the foliage color, needle structure, and needle size between both Deodara Cedar and Blue Atlas Cedar. The two varieties are sometimes confused by customers - so we thought this photo may be of use to help tell the difference between the two.
