    Lindsey's Skyward™ Bald Cypress is a very columnar deciduous conifer that is considered a dwarf Taxodium.  The fern-like needles emerge in lovely shades of soft green, displayed on very upward facing branches.  As the summer progresses the foliage deepens to dark green, followed by amber and copper colors for an extended period in autumn.  Winter interest is provided by the dramatic symmetrical columnar habit, after the needles have fallen to make a showy bronze carpet.  Taxodium distichum Lindsey's Skyward™ is an excellent choice for compact sites as well as wet sites.  It has a non-aggressive root system with no surface roots or knees.  Found as a chance seedling by the Oklahoma nurseryman Robert Michael Lindsey.

    Dense Anglojap Yew is the classic short needled evergreen for short hedges, but a waste of time in deer country. (However, Taxus medias show good salt tolerance.)  An alternate choice would be Cephalotaxus harringtonia var. drupacea.

    Hicks Anglojap Yew is a beautiful columnar short needled evergreen for tall, formal hedges, but not worth the effort if not protected from deer. An alternative choice is Cephalotaxus harringtonia 'Fastigiata'. This Taxus was found on Long Island by the late Henry Hicks.

    Korean Tetradium blooms for an extended time in mid summer, with quantities of small white flowers in flat corymbs. The flowers, which attract lots of bees and insects, mature to attractive red capsules opening up to display jet black seeds. The green disease-free pinnate leaves often are accentuated by showy red leaf stems (rachis). Tetradium daniellii is a little-seen small ornamental tree which should be added to more landscapes because of its excellent summer appeal. Beekeepers especially value Tetradium for its late season nectar source.  This is another "changing name" plant, formerly named 'Evodia' and 'Euodia'.
