A year cycle in the life of ...... at Stonehenge Planted about 8 ft. tall. The first winter deer nibble the lower branches new growth. -Spring 2014 I have since spray the tree with deer repellents and have placed Repellex tablets (June 6/14)in the soil to deter deer from eating the branches.

An excellent evergreen with graceful pendulous branches. Pyramidal form when young, wide-spreading and flat-topped in old age, often reaching 70' in height.
