Bald Cypress
I picked up this bald cypress at a local nursery here in Texas almost two years ago. It was about twelve feet in height and had all its foliage on the top 1/3 of the tree. After a trunk chop and a small root reduction, nothing else has been done except working the branches. The reason for the bar branch look, is because I'm styling it to look like the bald cypress that grow here in Texas. This tree has never been placed in shallow water like some enthusiasts tend to want to do. It grows just fine in the same type soil and conditions as my other trees.
