I planted my blue cedar in 1987 in my back yard appoximately 10 feet in from the rear corner. Since
then I have trained it to go to the rear corner made a right turn and it has continued for another thirty five.
Going in the other direction from the trunk the plant goes
another thirty five feet toward the front of my house.
The plant is no higher then five feet over all and the hanging branches makes a gorgeous back drop for the
flower beds. I receive complements from everyone.
I have no special experience in gardening so if their
is anyone who is interested in doing the same, you can
do it.

This tree needs room to spread and can become really huge - 30 feet across. If you want it smaller, it needs special attention to training. If you have the room for it, or the willingness to keep it in line from an early age, it's an incredibly beautiful tree.
