The Eastern Red Cedar is a hardy, evergreen tree known for its dense foliage, rich green color, and natural pyramidal shape. Ideal for USDA Hardiness Zones 2–9, this native tree thrives in a wide range of soil types, including dry, rocky, or poor soils, and is highly drought-tolerant once established. Perfect for windbreaks, privacy screens, wildlife habitats, and erosion control, offering year-round coverage and minimal maintenance. Its aromatic wood and blue berry-like cones also provide food and shelter for birds and other wildlife.
