Mediterranean cypresses (Cupressus sempervirens) have been cultivated since ancient times. They are, as the botanical species name suggests, evergreen conifers (sempervirens means “evergreen”) that grow rapidly when young and grow more slowly as they age. The species assigned to this genus and their numerous cultivated forms only tolerate cold to a limited extent.
In the Mediterranean region and the Near East, it is difficult to distinguish which species were original here: cypress species were already planted in various locations during the Roman Empire.
