Atlas Cedar

upright, narrow - full sun-partial shade
The term "Argentea" in the world of plants, suggests a silvery color, or highlights, and "Fastigata" indicates a narrow, upright shape. This cedar is a fairly vigorous grower (10´-12´ in 10 years), with dense, upright reaching branching covered in the eye-pleasing silver blue-green foliage. This variety would be a welcome addition to the larger garden or landscape area, either as a singular point of interest, or in appropriately spaced groups as a screen.
