Monrovia Deodar Cedar

The Feelin' Blue Deodar Cedar is a true dwarf variety. At maturity, it typically reaches about 5 feet in height and 10 feet in width, making it a manageable, slow-to-medium grower that is well-suited for smaller garden footprints.

Yes, it is an excellent candidate for containers. Its spreading, low-maintenance habit works beautifully in large pots, provided you use a well-draining potting mix and ensure the container has adequate drainage holes.

Unlike a traditional pine or spruce that grows straight up from a single main trunk, this cedar has a spreading, multi-stemmed habit. This creates a more horizontal, ground-hugging shape rather than a tall, conical form.

It is quite low-maintenance. Because of its natural spreading habit, you don't need to prune it heavily unless you are training it into a specific topiary shape or upright form.

This variety is hardy in Zone 6. If you live in an area with colder winters, it is best to keep it in a container so you can provide extra protection or move it to a sheltered spot during the harshest months.

Yes, full sun is essential for this plant. Adequate light exposure is what helps it maintain its signature blue-green foliage; if planted in too much shade, the color may fade and the plant may become sparse.
