Bald cypress seeds (Taxodium distichum/mucronatum) grow into majestic deciduous conifers that thrive in wet soil and standing water. These ancient trees develop distinctive "knees" in swampy conditions and stunning rust-colored fall foliage. Perfect for rain gardens, pond edges, and low-lying landscapes.

Bald cypress has lined southern waterways for millennia—those towering trunks rising from black water, buttressed roots gripping swamp soil. Despite their swamp origins, they adapt to normal garden conditions too. These seeds give you a start on growing a true specimen tree.
