Description
In a swamp in North Carolina I was on the lookout for an eagle's nest to photograph when I encountered this unusual but organised row of bald cypress trees. I was entranced with the reflections across a muddy swamp.
The Bald Cypress ( Taxodium distichum) is a deciduous conifer in the family Cupressaceae. It is native to the southeastern United States. Hardy and tough, this tree adapts to a wide range of soil types, whether wet, dry, or swampy. It is noted for the russet-red fall color of its lacy needles.
This plant has some cultivated varieties and is often used in groupings in public spaces. Common names include bald cypress, baldcypress, swamp cypress, white cypress, tidewater red cypress, gulf cypress and red cypress.
