Cedrus atlantica ´Aurea´
Atlas Cedar
Zone: 6-9
4"-6" /year
8´-10´ /10 years
upright, narrow
This plant displays eye catching foliage in the spring and summer months. Half of each branch is a golden yellow and the other is a vibrant green. Slower growing than the bue form of upright atlas cedar (´Glauca´) at 8´-10´ in ten years, it can provide a wonderful color accent in even smaller garden areas. This plant may need partial shade in a hot, dry climate to maintain its optimum color.
