Gold Rider Leyland Cypress

Gold Rider Leyland Cypress is a stunning fast-growing evergreen conifer that sets itself apart from the standard Leyland with its vibrant golden-yellow foliage that maintains its warm color throughout the year. This tall, columnar tree grows at a rate of 2 to 3 feet per year and can reach heights of 40 to 50 feet, making it an exceptional choice for large privacy screens, windbreaks, and dramatic vertical accents in the landscape. It thrives in full sun, where the golden color is most intense, and adapts to a wide range of well-drained soil types.
