The Leyland Cypress is an evergreen coniferous tree commonly used as a fast-growing hedge or screen. It is a hybrid between the Monterey Cypress and the Nootka Cypress. This tree can grow up to 50-60 feet (15-18 meters) tall, with dense, dark green foliage that makes it an excellent choice for privacy screens and windbreaks. It thrives in a variety of soil types and is known for its rapid growth rate, making it a popular choice for landscaping purposes. However, it requires regular maintenance to manage its size and shape.
