White Cedar

The White Cedar is one of Australia's few truly deciduous native trees, growing into a magnificent specimen that easily surpasses 3 meters, regularly reaching 10 to 15 meters high with a wide, umbrella-like canopy. In spring, it fills with large clusters of highly fragrant, lilac-and-white star flowers followed by decorative golden beads, providing deep summer shade before dropping its fern-like leaves in winter to let the sun through.
