Bald Cypress

I love bald cypress trees and local "old-timers" said that once upon a time there were a lot of them growing along the Nueces near our area but logging took out many and a huge flood did the rest. My family has planted a few around our property and they are doing quite well. The fern-like leaves or needles turn brilliant shades of orange-red in autumn before the trees go dormant for winter.
