INFORMATION PROVIDED WITH THE PHOTO
  • date of photo  Sep 20, 2002
  • location   Frey Rd. near Lack Cr., Shasta Co. (Shasta County, California, US)
  • family Cupressaceae
  • synonyms Cupressus macnabiana
  • notes   MacNab Cypress in the light of the setting sun. To the naked eye, MacNab Cypress appears to be a dull, dusty blue or gray/green on the older trees. The young trees are much brighter bluish-gray/green, and are much more resinous to the touch, and very fragrant. Depending on the lighting and the individual tree, photos usually show a lot of white reflection from the resin glands, especially with fill in flash on daylight shots. You have to physically see the trees of various ages and different groves to see their true colours.
