The smallest and shortest selection of the weeping Deodar Cedar varieties, Feelin' Blue spreads wider than its height with long drooping branches of blue needles. You can stake a young shoot upright to form a narrow tree with weeping branches if you have a particularly tight spot in your landscape. When left alone the tree will develop several layers of main branches that spread outward from the plant.
