Why the Cascade Falls Weeping Bald Cypress?
Cascade Falls Weeping Bald Cypress is a work of art resembling a romantic waterfall. Its delicate feathery green leaves bring a subtle relaxation and sense of peace to your garden. This unique character is something out of a dream or Dr. Suess book and is definitely a conversation starter! As one of the most unusual conifers to hit the market, before it grew in popularity, this rare specimen was once only found being sold at auctions in New Zealand, and everyone wanted to bring home this prized tree! If you have a pond or an area in your garden that can become a bit soggy - this is the perfect specimen to plant there! It will fill what once was a problem space into a living waterfall oasis!
Bald Cypress is a charismatic tree native to swampy regions of the Deep South. Related to the ancient Redwoods of the West, trees in the East can reach the venerable age of 1,800 years. This selection was brought to the U.S. from Germany by an American immigrant with a story of his own, named Harald Neubauer. As a boy, Neubauer and his family fled their native Poland for East Germany when the Russian Army advanced, later escaping again to West Germany. Harald eventually settled in Tennessee. His friend, nurseryman Don Shadow, named this plant.
How to use in the landscape?
This is the uniquest tree I've ever seen! It's so unique that I'm even creating new words to express my thoughts...not exactly your common "weeping" tree. Green deciduous needles turn bronze in fall before dropping for winter. A great form for winter interest in the garden. Cascade Falls also showcases reddish brown bark that peels in strips. There's only one way to enjoy this awesome tree - plant one for yourself!

How To Plant
Cascade Falls Weeping Bald Cypress is a strongly weeping plant and may need staking to continue to guide it into an upright form. You can also let the branches arch and tumble as they will. Though a native of swamps, this tree will grow just fine in drier soil, and even though it’s a native of the Deep South, it is cold-hardy to Vermont. Pests are rarely a problem—the only time it makes homeowners panic is when they don’t realize that this conifer is supposed to drop its needles!
How To Water
Water deeply, and regularly during first few years in the ground. Irrigate weekly, especially during prolonged dry spells or extreme heat after it’s established.
How To Fertilize
Incorporate Elements Starter Plant food granular form into the soil when planting. If planting in spring or summer, start fertilizing late fall using Elements Starter Plant food granular form on an annual basis each late fall. Continue this for the first three years to get your plant well established.

How Does Shipping Work?
Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box! Our large trees require expert delivery and care, that means our large trees are shipped on Bower & Branch trucks. We are the only ones who know how to ship our big and bigger trees and plants with tender loving care.
We deliver your trees and plants directly to your driveway or curbside! Ask Bower & Branch about planting services and rates – we'd be happy to assist in installation.
*Big trees, Size XL (A) and bigger, will take approximately 2 to 4 weeks days to be delivered. - Sizes large (AA) and smaller (Treelings) will be shipped directly to your home by a local common carrier in a plant-safe box.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health.. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!

Customer Reviews
I have ordered and now received this amazingly beautiful specimen tree! The whole experience was incredible....super customer service from start to finish. Wendi-Jo from Bower & Branch went so far as sending me a picture of my tree before it was even delivered and it is even more beautiful in my posession.
The tree was delivered by a Bower & Branch trucker named Dan who took care of my tree with TLC .... like it was his own. It was delivered in perfect condition and without a glitch. An extremely personable “fella” whom my husband and I bonded with right away. Can’t say enough about our total experience with Bower & Branch.
Could not be more pleased and cannot say enough GOOD about them. They are the BEST place to order trees you will not be disappointed.
