Nursery contributed plant descriptions

From the mountains above Eel River in California's Coast Range, these, at their higher elevation range, are most attractive, reaching about 40-50' tall and spreading to 30-40' with silvered, checkered bark and dark, flattened, evergreen leaves. At their best on dry garden slopes and have proven very good in urban conditions making them valuable street trees for the West. Should be long-lived and frost hardy to 0 °F, USDA zone 7, possibly zone 6.
