Columnar Italian Cypress - Cupressus sempervirens 'Stricta'
Columnar trees have a very narrow, upright shape. Another term often used to describe this shape is fastigiate, though there are some differences. Columnar trees usually have just one trunk and occur naturally as mutations.
Some examples of columnar trees include:
- Columnar apple - Malus spp.
- Columnar peach - Prunus persica 'Crimson Rocket'
- Dawyck gold beech - Fagus sylvatica 'Dawyck Gold'
- Leyland cypress - X Cupressocyparis leylandii
- Lombardy poplar - Populus nigra 'Italica'
