The article is wrong about the vitality of Leyland Cypress in the southeastern Unites States. I live in Atlanta Georgia which is southeastern and has a hot climate. I can look out my window and see some very large and very healthy Leyland Cypress. The trees are so popular in Atlanta they sell out in the nurseries on a regular basis.

the data are inaccurate. the leyland cypress is a cross between the alaskan cedar and the monterey cypress. the scientific name is x Cupressocyparis leylandii. the x denotes that the tree is a hybrid and does not cross pollenate, but only reproduces by cutting.

What is the most effective Herbicide to kill unwanted Leylandii, prior to selective felling. I am looking for a Systemic ground application that will not risk other plants by spraying. Comments and advice will be welcome.88.144.47.28 17:48, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
