Origin
Cedrus deodara 'Green Cascade' is a cultivar of the Deodar cedar. This variety originates from the regions surrounding the western Himalayas. The species Cedrus deodara is originally found in Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, and Nepal. The selection 'Green Cascade' was developed for its graceful, weeping growth habit.

Characteristics
'Green Cascade' is notable for its strongly pendulous branches and weeping form. The needles are a fresh green colour and remain on the tree year-round. This cultivar stays more compact than the species and has a slow growth rate. The bark is smooth at first and becomes rougher with age. The tree can be used as a small specimen or trained as an espalier.

Care
Cedrus deodara 'Green Cascade' grows best in a sunny position in well-drained soil. The soil should be moderately moist, without prolonged wet periods. Pruning is generally not required, due to the tree’s natural shape. The plant is reasonably tolerant of air pollution and can withstand light frost. Protection against extreme cold during its early years can help encourage healthy growth.
