Cedrus libani Flower Flowers in March with fruitPerhaps the most iconic tree of churches, cathedrals, and other heritage spaces. Pyramidal when young, but developing over many years into an imposing (or is it sheltering?) flat topped, wide spreading tree of open habit. Foliage is green or greyish green. Cones 8 10cm.
