The symbolism of different types of cypress trees extends to tales of immortality, as well as stories about the cypress being the ‘chosen tree of the underworld.’

It is believed that the name ‘cypress’ was derived from the Greek mythology legend of Apollo and Cyparissus. Cyparissus had a pet deer which was accidently killed by Apollo. Apollo then turned the deer into a tree, and the legend of the birth of the Cypress tree was born.

But, if you’ve ever wanted to know how to identify types of cypress trees in every state (knowing how to point out their differences and similarities), this complete guide can help.

With images and growing zones, you’ll be able to characterize cypress trees quickly and easily.

Where Do Cypress Trees Grow?

Cypress trees are native to Mediterranean regions, as well as the US and Asia. The first question that is usually asked about cypress trees in US regions, is ‘where do cypress trees grow?’

Cypress trees in the US grow mainly along the southern coastlines because they thrive in moist soil. Some types of cypress trees grow in Delaware and Florida, while others can be found in Nevada and Texas.

Different Types of Cypress Trees

The different types of cypress trees include the following:

  • Bald Cypress Tree
  • Gowen Cypress Tree
  • Bhutan Cypress Tree
  • Chinese Weeping Cypress Tree
  • Cheng’s Cypress Tree

  • Moroccan Cypress Tree
  • Arizona Cypress Tree

Different types of cypress trees are divided into two categories: true cypresses and false cypresses.

Those that fall under the Cupressus genus, are considered true cypresses. These cypress trees originated in Italy and France.

False cypresses are endemic to Asia and have softer wood than true cypresses.2

Types of Cypress Trees and Their Identifying Features

All types of cypress trees have their own unique features that set them apart from one another. This includes false and true cypress trees.

The below lists highlight the best types of cypress trees and their identifying features:

1. Bald Cypress Tree

Cypress Swamp

Located on the Delmarva Peninsula in southern Delaware and southeastern Maryland is the Great Cypress Swamp.17

In historical times the swamp was called the headwaters of the Pocomoke River, and there is evidence here that it withstood the precious ice age. Today it is still the northernmost cypress swamp in North America.

The swamp was logged by early settlers who used the bald cypress wood for building purposes and coffins. After the war, lumbermen had greater access to the swamp and most of the trees were cut down.

When the state took control of the swamp in the 1950s, it extended protection over it and today some of the trees along the Pocomoke River are believed to be older than 100 years.8

There is also a notable cypress swamp in Florida called Florida’s Big Cypress Swamp. The types of cypress trees that grow and thrive here include dwarf cypress, pond cypress, and bald cypress trees.
