Murray Cypress is an evergreen relative of the popular Leyland Cypress, but has a few differences that make it better.

It has improved disease resistance, stronger branching and some tolerance for partially wet soil.

Another great trait is the growth rate. Murray can grow up 3 feet per year, making a dense screen quickly. If you need a privacy fence, this is a top candidate!

It averages about 35 to 42 feet tall and grows 9 to 12 feet wide. For planting in a row spacing should be 7-8 feet apart.
