Cedrus deodara 'Shalimar' HARDY DEODAR CEDAR EG (z6) (Bon)
Perhaps the hardiest Deodar Cedar, this attractive large tree was selected by the Arnold Arboretum in Boston; lovely, like its parent, with pendant tips and blue-green needles. Sun-PSh/Med

I purchased three (tube size) from forest farm in spring 2005, and tried not to water them too much. In the fall, I placed burlap barriers around them, because we are in planting zone 6b, and they are planted on a somewhat windy hill. After this winter, which was fairly mild, two survived; and I ordered another to replace the one I lost. The one I lost received a little more water last summer than the other two. They had very little growth in the first year. I will continue to watch for progress,
