Cryptomeria

Buy Cryptomeria Trees In Georgia

Japanese Cedar, or Cryptomeria,  is a striking medium height evergreen tree that is easy to grow within an adaptive habit. Often referred to as “Black Dragon.”  This coniferous tree originated in Japan and China and was later introduced to the United States and favored amongst tree enthusiasts. 

Cryptomerias can grow upward to about 60 ft high and live over 1,000 years old. Cryptomeria trees prefer richly moist, well-drained, acidic soil. Although that’s a Cryptomeria preferred soil, it’s adaptable to other soil types. Many types of Cryptomeria are easy to grow and require partial shade.

Cryptomeria trees deter deer, are non-toxic to most household animals and livestock, and are somewhat salt intolerant, making them easy to have around your property. The reddish and brown exfoliating bark makes Cryptomeria distinctive and remarkably beautiful, and their colors change slightly during the winter. They form a graceful pyramid shape with impressively long needles. The pyramid shape comes from their open, fragrant, and loose needles that give Cryptomeria trees their body.

For growing Japanese Cryptomeria, the conditions should be in temperate climates, not too hot or cold for best results. In the United States, they can grow easiest around the country’s edges, except north around the Dakotas; the climate is too cold for Cryptomeria to thrive and survive. They can tolerate changes but not overly consistent cooler to cold weather. They need enough water year-round to sustain well with proper soil.

Cryptomeria Growth Rate

To start growing Cryptomeria, plant during the summertime for the best incubation time frame and weather conditions. If you are determined, you can check the pH balance of the soil before planting, and we do recommend testing the ground if you wish to care for your Black Dragon tree. Make sure it has a decent amount of shade to grow. You can expect Cryptomeria to grow about 2 to 3 feet per year but will eventually cap.
