Bald Cypress is a deciduous conifer which typically grow 60 feet tall and 35 to 40 Feet wide. Their new growth emerges as slender, light green flat leaves which turn darker green in Summer, and reddish brown in the fall. They can grow in wet swampy areas where they also produce “knees” to help support the tree. In landscape areas you shouldn’t see these knees as the soil isn’t loose and swampy.
