Cedrus deodara ‘Electra Blue’

Cedrus deodara ‘Electra Blue’ is a vibrant selection of Deodar Cedar prized for its intense silvery-blue needles and refined, pyramidal form. This evergreen conifer offers a softer, more compact habit than the species, making it an excellent choice for specimen plantings, privacy screens, and upscale landscape designs.

‘Electra Blue’ has a moderate to fast growth rate, typically adding 12–24 inches per year under optimal conditions. It performs best in USDA Zones 6–9, thriving in full sun and well-drained soil. As it matures, it develops graceful, slightly arching branches and maintains its brilliant blue color year-round, providing strong vertical structure and lasting visual impact in both residential and commercial landscapes.
