Botanical Name Torreya taxifolia
Description A very rare native conifer that has origins in the deep south. Although this conifer was once common along the Apalachicola River, it went into severe decline in the 1950s when a fungal blight began to kill off large numbers of trees. Today, this tree is listed as a critically endangered species on the Federal Red List. The wild population is diminishing due to foliar fungal blight. A mature specimen can reach 40'High x 30'Wide. Easy to grow and a nice specimen evergreen to have in your landscape.
