California Incense cedar is the preferred choice tree
for making cedar oil and smudge sticks. It is a natural air purifier.
The oils in the tree perfume the air very well. When planted in mass the
strong cedar scent of these trees can spread for miles outdoors
(throughout an entire neighborhood). Unlike other fast-growing cedar trees, this one can stand some water and moisture without root rot. Once established, the root system is very hardy and strong. It is another great choice for a wind-break or a natural privacy screen.

How to Care for California Incense Cedar Trees
Mulching is recommended. These trees are perfect for low maintenance growers. Water when the soil is dry (Watering only 2 times a week is fine). Grows in any soil type as long as there is
adequate drainage. Remove dead branches. Prune in winter if a shorter, denser tree is desired. When pruning, take care to not remove more than 1/3 of the tree at a time.
