Uptyn Bald Cypress is a fast-growing native conifer tree with an upright habit and unusually fine and soft textured foliage. The feathery green fern-like foliage turns rusty red in fall. Grows best in full sun and moist to wet acidic soil. Uptyn takes on a diamond shape when grown full to the ground.
