Most species have very fragrant needle like leaves arranged in clusters.

Though becoming very large in size they grow moderately and have a pyramidal crown in their juvenile stage. Older specimens form a wide crown resembling a huge umbrella. Ideal for most well drained soils in a sunny spot. Sow flat at 15-25°C in any well drained soil in full sun. Keep soil only slightly moist. All are USDA Climate Zone 6. 10 seeds per package. |
