Alaska Cedar

Alaska Cedar

Chamaecyparis nootkatensis

HT: 60-100' DIA: 1-5'

Walk a little bit further into the park and you will come across an Alaska-Cedar. These trees are not native to Rhode Island, however are commonly used as an ornamental as RI conditions do not allow them to grow to their fullest condition. I really like the bark on these trees. And I love the combination of greens and browns.
