With very attractive golden foliage and a natural weeping habit, Cedrus deodara ‘Vinks Golden’ is a smaller growing form, although still a large tree.
At maturity it is elegant, a bushy layered look, and golden green foliage combined with the weeping habit it makes an outstanding feature tree for larger gardens.
