About Deodar Cedar
Also known as Himalayan Cedar, Deodar Cedar is native to the western reaches of the Himalayas, where it can reach up to 200 feet-tall (though it usually remains under 100 feet-tall in cultivation). The tree takes on a broad pyramidal form in maturity, featuring graceful, loosely hanging branches adorned with blue-green, silvery needles. The tree's botanical name, Cedrus deodara, is derived from the Sanskrit term "devadāru", meaning "wood of the gods."
About Jonsteen's Seedlings
All of our trees are seed-grown at our nursery on California's Redwood Coast, which is inspected monthly and licensed by the California Department of Agriculture. Trees can provide a natural barrier against high winds, temperatures, noise pollution and soil erosion, all while benefiting local air quality, wildlife and property values — a Jonsteen seedling will only grow in value and beauty!
About Jonsteen's 100% Guarantee
All of our trees are guaranteed to arrive healthy and in good condition. If your tree perishes despite your honest efforts, we will be happy to replace it with a small-sized seedling for just the cost of shipping/handling. You can learn more about our guarantee and tree replacement policy here.
Seedling Size Chart: Medium
Due to the dynamic nature of actively growing trees, as well as the tremendous variation between species’ growth rates, we rely on the cubic volume of a seedling’s root mass to determine its “size” (Small / Medium / Large / XL). Within each size there is minor variance — the dimensions provided here represent the category minimum. If exact measurements are essential, please contact us about current stock.
