Cedrus deodara Deep Cove
Deep Cove Deodora Cedar
A refined, upright selection of deodar cedar valued for its cool blue-green foliage and graceful, softly pendulous branch tips. ‘Deep Cove’ develops a strong central leader with a narrower, more controlled outline than the species, offering the classic deodar look in a more manageable form.
