Tree Story
About Santa Cruz Cypress
Found wild in only 5 small pockets on California’s central coast, the Santa Cruz Cypress (Cupressus abramsiana) is one of the rarest trees in North America, and is protected under the Endangered Species Act of 1973.A small- to medium-sized evergreen, Santa Cruz Cypress tends to grow in a symmetrical, pyramidal fashion, featuring the signature scale-like needles typical of the Cupressaceae family, which grow in slender, delicate sprays. Similar in appearance to both the Gowen Cypress (Cupressus goveniana) and the Sargent's Cypress (Cupressus sargentii) — and still at the center of some controversy among taxonomists as to its classification as a separate species — the Santa Cruz Cypress is set apart by its ability to grow in nonserpentine soils and the larger size of its cones, which measure up to 1.25 inches-long. Bark is gray, thin, and broken into plates.
Usually remaining under 30 feet-tall, this is a great species for smaller gardens and container growing.
About Jonsteen's Seedlings
All of our trees are seed-grown at our nursery on California's Redwood Coast, which is inspected monthly and licensed by the California Department of Agriculture. Trees can provide a natural barrier against high winds, temperatures, noise pollution and soil erosion, all while benefiting local air quality, wildlife and property values — a Jonsteen seedling will only grow in value and beauty!
About Jonsteen's 100% Guarantee
All of our trees are guaranteed to arrive healthy and in good condition. If your tree perishes despite your honest efforts, we will be happy to replace it with a small-sized seedling for just the cost of shipping/handling. You can learn more about our guarantee and tree replacement policy here.
Size Chart
Seedling Size Chart: Small
Due to the dynamic nature of actively growing trees, as well as the tremendous variation between species’ growth rates, we rely on the cubic volume of a seedling’s root mass to determine its “size” (Small / Medium / Large / XL). Within each size there is minor variance — the dimensions provided here represent the category minimum. If exact measurements are essential, please contact us about current stock.
