40 Seeds Siberian Larch Larix sibirica Cold Hardy Deciduous Conifer Tree
Siberian Larch is a cold-hardy deciduous conifer known for its soft green needles that turn a brilliant golden yellow in autumn before dropping for winter. This fast-growing tree develops a straight trunk and a narrow, pyramidal crown, making it a striking specimen for larger landscapes and windbreaks.
The fine texture of Siberian Larch foliage contrasts beautifully with broadleaf plants and evergreens, and its seasonal color change adds year-round interest. It works well in groupings, as a single specimen, or in shelterbelt plantings where a hardy, upright tree is needed. Seeds are easy to handle and store, and this species is a rewarding choice for growers interested in conifers that offer a deciduous habit.
