'''''Cupressus arizonica''''', the '''Arizona Cypress''', is a species of [[Cupressaceae|cypress]] native to the southwest of [[North America]]. It is a medium-sized [[evergreen]] [[tree]] with a conic to ovoid-conic crown. It grows to heights of 10-25 m, and its trunk diameter reaches 0.5 m. The foliage grows in dense sprays, varying from dull gray-green to bright glaucous blue-green in color. The [[leaf|leaves]] are scale-like, 2-5 mm long, and produced on rounded (not flattened) shoots. The seed [[conifer cone|cones]] are globose to oblong, 15-33 mm long, with 6 or 8 (rarely 4 or 10) scales, green at first, maturing gray or gray-brown about 20–24 months after pollination. The cones remain closed for many years, only opening after the parent tree is killed in a [[wildfire]], thereby allowing the [[seed]]s to colonize the bare ground exposed by the fire. The male cones are 3-5 mm long, and release pollen in February-March. ==Cultivation== ===Propagation=== ===Pests and diseases=== ==Varieties== ==Gallery== <gallery perrow=5> File:Cup glabra foliage.jpg| photo 1 Image:Upload.png| photo 2 Image:Upload.png| photo 3 </gallery> ==References== <references/> <!--- xxxxx *Flora: The Gardener's Bible, by Sean Hogan.
