    “This tree species, known to us as the cypress, dates from around 150 years ago. At that time, foresters tried to cultivate foreign tree species in our forests. However, it was not able to assert itself as a tree relevant to forestry. Nevertheless, she delights us with her special shape, her ethereally scented needles and because of her rarity.”

        In this country, false cypress species are better known as shrubs or hedges in gardens and parks. On the other hand, some specimens have grown into trees over 150 years.
