Bald Cypress

You will find the Bald cypress (Taxodium distichum) next to the entry gate. 

It is native to the southeastern United States. 

Depending on the time of year it will have brilliant green needles or rust colored needles or will be leafless.

The Bald cypress is a riparian tree, meaning that it needs water provided by a river or some other water source. Not drought tolerant. Unless you live near a water source, enjoy it here in the park. See SelecTree.
