On Sale Today! at Wayside Gardens.

An exciting new look for a beloved native conifer! Cascade Falls is the first weeping Baldcypress, combining the soft foliage, gorgeous fall color, and great adaptability of the standard 70-foot tree with a small, elegant, weeping habit! Just 10 to 15 feet tall and a bit wider, this is the specimen you want for that place of honor in the front yard, patio, or special garden nook!

Cascade Falls is a delight in every season. In spring, the new needles arise a soft, rich green, gradually deepening as the weather warms up. In fall, they burnish into all tones of yellow and gold. And the winter silhouette is breathtaking, with masses of weeping stems!

It’s easy to grow this magnificent little tree. Just train it up a stake to any height you desire (8 to 15 feet would be ideal) and then let it arch over and down. Its branches will eventually brush the ground beneath them, creating a lovely effect. Try a pair of Cascade Falls on either side of the garden entry, flanking the front door, or dazzling the foundation planting. A solitary specimen is truly awe-inspiring, yet Cascade Falls also works well as the focal point of the border, patio garden, or other design, mixing with perennials and shrubs beautifully.

Baldcypress is a native North American tree, easy to grow but often difficult to find. Hardy all the way through zone 10, it withstands drought, heat, humidity, cold, poor soil — just about anything Nature has to offer! Set in full sun to partial shade, it will grow 10 to 15 feet high and about 15 to 20 feet wide, though you can train and then prune it to the size you desire. A classic for gardens across America! Zones 4-10.
