Eastern White Cedar is a coniferous species of the midwestern and northeastern North America lowlands. A lowland species, it tolerates moist soils and prefers but does not require alkaline conditions. This cedar resembles the Western Red-cedar but is much smaller, reaching 50 feet in height at a slow growth rate. Long-lived, the bark of mature trees appears shredded and is brown in color. The yellowish-green, scale-like leaves lie close to the branches. In winter, the needles often turn a bronze color. The cones are small and brown when mature.
These trees are three years old and are grown from seed collected at Lake Huron.
