Cupressus Macrocarpa 'Monterey Cypress' 36 inch box

Cupressus macrocarpa — Monterey Cypress

Coastal strength. Sculptural elegance.

The Monterey Cypress is an iconic evergreen tree revered for its dramatic form, dense foliage, and timeless coastal character. Native to California’s rugged shoreline, Cupressus macrocarpa brings a sense of natural grandeur and architectural presence to luxury landscapes, blending strength with refined beauty.

Characterized by rich green foliage, textured branching, and a naturally upright to broadly spreading habit, Monterey Cypress can be maintained as a formal hedge or screen when young, or allowed to mature into a bold, sculptural specimen with age. Its versatility and commanding silhouette make it a striking choice for estate plantings, large properties, and coastal or wind-exposed sites.

Exceptionally tolerant of wind, salt air, and coastal conditions, Monterey Cypress thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, with strong drought tolerance once established. Long-lived and resilient, it offers year-round structure and a sense of permanence that few trees can rival.
