Abstract
Similar to Baldcypress in that the trunk is perfectly straight 50 to 60 feet tall, Pondcypress has a narrower crown, is smaller, and has a more open habit. It is found along the edges of streams and around the edge of swampy ground where water is standing; whereas Baldcypress is usually found along stream banks. The bright green, awl-shaped leaves are arranged in an upright row formation along the branches when young, giving a somewhat stiffer and more upright appearance than Baldcypress. Original publication date November 1993.
