The Bald Cypress Cascade Falls,
Taxodium distichum 'Cascade Falls', (PP12296), is an
exciting, very-weeping bald cypress. The weeping form of
this Bald Cypress is very attractive and eye catching as
it displays it's bright green foliage. Cascade Falls is
tolerant of a wide range of soil and moisture
conditions.
All members of the bald cypress
family are deciduous conifers. The new foliage is light
green and will turn orange brown in the fall. With the
cinnamon color, exfoliating bark, and unusual weeping
form, it has great winter interest.
Pruners can be used to control the length of the
branches and whether the tips touch the ground or are
allowed to cover the ground. Stake it to a certain
height and then let it cascade down. If you don’t stake
it up, this plant would be like a ground cover. In a
landscape application you could let it flow over a rock
wall like a green waterfall.
Use this plant as a specimen or in
a near water location. It also grows well in standing
water and compacted soils.
