Cedrus deodara Feelin Blue

Common Name:
Feelin' Blue Deodar Cedar

Description:
Cedrus deodara ‘Feelin’ Blue’ is a striking, low-growing, spreading conifer with soft, silvery-blue needles that create a cascading effect. This dwarf variety of the Deodar Cedar is prized for its compact, mounding habit, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, borders, containers, or as a ground cover. It thrives in well-drained soil and prefers full sun, where its vibrant blue foliage is most intense. This hardy, drought-tolerant tree requires little maintenance and can be pruned or trained into different shapes, including a small upright form if staked. Its unique texture and colour add year-round interest to any landscape.
