Taiwania cryptomerioides pendula
Family: Taxodiaceae
Common Name(s):
Grown by: Ted Kipping, San Francisco

Like the Taiwania described last month, this plant is an evergreen tree with somewhat prickly, small leaves encircling the stems. This particular branch was brought from Medford, Oregon by Ted, where it was grown by Boyd Kline. It is different from the regular species in that the branches are pendulous, hence its name.
