- Ecological Value: The bald cypress is a low-maintenance tree with easy fall cleanup. It is one of the longest living trees in the world and its rings hold years of climate data. Although it looks like a needled evergreen (same family as redwoods) in summer, it is deciduous (“bald” as the common name suggests).
