Leyland Cypress & Naylors Blue Cypress

x Cupressocyparis leylandii

10-12' Leyland Cypress

Leyland Cypress is a well-known, fast-growing screening tree. Like the Excelsa Cedar, these trees are bigger than the "Emerald Green" Arborvitae -both wider and taller, and much faster-growing.

We deliver and plant trees throughout Washington: Seattle, Bellevue, Bellingham, Vancouver (WA), east-of-the-mountains, etc. Contact us for free estimates: info@NurseryTrees.com or (425) 343-2650.

ATTRIBUTES

Foliage: Evergreen

Mature Height: To 60 ft.

Mature Width: 25 ft.

Sunlight: Prefers full sun; likes hot weather.

Soil:. Must be well-drained; won't tolerate "wet feet". OK in acid soil, alkaline soil.

Growth Rate: Fast, up to 4' a year after established, depending on growing conditions.

"Instant Privacy" Use: Fast-growing, larger barrier. Avoid power lines, plan for growth.

"Instant Privacy" Spacing: These trees can be spaced on 4, 6, or 8' centers (meaning the trunks of each tree are 4', 6', or 8' apart) or wider. For example, if you're trying to cover 40' with trees on 8' centers, you'd need 6 trees (the first one at "0" ft. on one end, and then one every 8' after that). Some people want them even closer than that in order to maximize the 'Instant Privacy", while others will put them wider in order to cut down on the cost.

Comments: Leyland Cypress don't look too impressive when they are young. As they mature they fill-in and become an excellent screening tree. They can't be judged on height alone because they can vary greatly in their fullness.

Be careful when buying Leyland Cypress--there are no standards.

Both of these trees were advertised as 6-7' trees--we sell the one on the right

(and actually, our current 6-7' trees look better than the one in the photo--see below left).

Naylors Blue Cypress

12-15' Naylors Blue Cypress

The Naylors Blue Cypress are similar in growth habit to the Leyland Cypress, although not quite as tall and wide. Their coloring is more of a bluish color than the green of the Leylands (this color difference doesn't show up well on the internet, but is very clear "in person"). Beautiful, big trees that will make an immediate impact.
