Libocedrus decurrens (Western Incense Cedar) 
A shapely pyramid in form, with fine, fan-like foliage, that is dense, and a 
beautiful glossy-green. The foliage is also delightfully fragrant. The bark is 
bright cinnamon-red. Incense Cedar is native Oregon to California and 
western Nevada. Flourishes on the cold eastern slopes of the Cascade moun- 
tains and in dry, rocky soil. A tall growing tree. As an ornamental, they are 
grown chiefly for their handsome, fragrant evergreen foliage and charming 
habit of growth. The perfect symmetry of growth from the ground to tip of 
the tree is a characteristic that places decurrens almost in a class by itself, 
the only other conifer that is comparable being Sequoia gigantea.
