While the traditional idea of a cypress tree grows in marshlands and swamps in the southeast US and tropical and sup-tropical climates many cypress trees, such as Italian Cypress, European Cypress, and Leyland Cypress are drought-free and they grow almost everywhere. They require little water, and can adapt to almost any soil type. They even resist smog and frost damage! They are well tolerant to many climates. They even grow in Arizona. Plant them in a pot, and keep an eye on them with only a little water about once per week. Re-pot or plant in the ground in the spring. Throw in fresh potting in well-drained acidic soil. When you fertilize use a well-balanced granular fertilizer. Then let it go. It should adapt well as long as it's protected for the first winter, and the frost isn't too heavy. After that, it should grow well on its own. You might need to put in a fertilizer stick every 6 months after that, and see that it has adequate water. Check with a landscaper or nursery for tips fitting your climate. - fast-growing-trees.com/ Cypress Tree;
