A large, evergreen tree, Cupressus × leylandii reaches a size between 20 and 25 m high, with its leaves giving it a compact, thick and regular habit. It grows very fast with yearly increases of 1 m. The leaves, about 1 mm long and close to the twig, are presented in flaky, slightly aromatic branches. They are dark green, somewhat paler on the ...
Leaves are initially green but become more mottled brown and leathery as the plant grows. [ 9 ] Juvenile leaves, which are produced up to 4 m or before the tree branches, [ 9 ] are especially long and narrow (1 m long by 1–1.5 cm wide) [ 11 ] – similar in shape to a lance . [ 5 ]
The leaves are scale-like, 2–5 mm long, and produced on rounded (not flattened) shoots; seedlings up to a year old have needle-like leaves 4–8 mm long. The seed cones are globose to oblong, 20–40 mm long, with 6–14 scales, green at first, maturing brown about 20–24 months after pollination.
The plant's flowers are yellow and grow up to an inch in diameter, with five petals attached at the base. Flowers grow on stalks and can either be found in clusters or individually where the stalk meets the leaf stem. [3] Pod-like capsules produced by the plant consist of 12-15 wood segments that form cup-like rings.
Cypress are evergreen trees or large shrubs, growing to 5–40 m (16–131 ft) tall, exceptionally up to 102 m tall (the second-tallest tree species on earth, after Sequoia sempervirens) in Cupressus austrotibetica. [5] The leaves are scale-like, 2–6 mm long, arranged in opposite decussate pairs, and persist for three to five years. On young ...
At least 2000 specimens grow on Nihoa, while there are far less on Necker. ʻŌhai is highly polymorphic, exhibiting broad variations in color and shape. Plants that grow on Nihoa have reddish-orange flowers and young leaflets that are relatively hairless. Necker plants have salmon to orange colored-flowers, and leaflets that are very hairy.

The leaves are 5–11 cm (2– 4 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) long and forked after 2–5 cm (3 ⁄ 4 –2 in) [2] into three segments, then often forked a second time. [5] The leaf tips are pointed. Leaves can vary markedly on single plants, with some leaves undivided. Leaf surfaces are generally smooth, though occasionally covered with fine hair. [6]
