Cypress Tree Care

True cypress trees are members of the Cupressus genus. Most are hardy evergreens with emerald green, scale-like foliage. Leland Cypress and Italian Cypress grow quickly and make excellent privacy screens. Bald and pond cypresses, part of the related Taxodium genus, grow well near water and are deciduous. By contrast, the low-growing Russian and Siberian cypresses (Microbiota decussata) make an excellent evergreen groundcover and are useful for erosion control.
