Cupressus sempervirens
Italian Cypress Tree
This elegant evergreen conifer grows to be tall with a slender form, making it an excellent choice for architectural planting. The dark-green, scale-like leaves are densely-packed on the upright branches and a neat, columnar shape is achieved when mature. Synonymous with the Tuscan landscape, the Cupressus sempervirens is a much-admired Mediterranean native, but its dignified silhouette makes it a feature of formal gardens all around the world. With that being said, it is fully hardy down to -20 and can tolerate both costal sites and urban pollution, so it is well-suited to most U.K. gardens. You can plant this as a specimen, but it looks particularly striking when lining a driveway or a path. With this being an evergreen it also makes an effective, yet attractive, screen when multiple trees are planted alongside each other.

In the UK, this evergreen conifer can be planted in groups as a very attractive screen and it is also extremely effecting for lining a driveway or for courtyard planting. The mid-dark green foliage is densely packed on the tree to form a neat and columnar shape and the foliage has a wonderfully fresh fragrance to it. This is a great choice for adding colour to your garden all year round, and it works particularly well as a structural conifer in a Mediterranean style garden.
