About Leyland Cypress

Leyland Cypress is a popular privacy tree that is fast-growing and well adapted to the Pacific Northwest. Much like the Excelsa Cedar, these trees tend to grow wider and taller than the Emerald Green and are much faster growing. One of the benefits of the Leyland Cypress is you can either start them small and let them grow or have larger trees planted for more immediate privacy. Leyland Cypress also allows for a nice rectangular privacy hedge.
