Attributes:
The Eastern Red cedar tree is a common sight on road cuts and in fence rows and abandoned fields throughout most of the plains states and eastern United States, especially where limestone soils are present. It is a tree of reddish wood giving off the scent of cedar chests and its crushed berries provide a whiff of the gin they once flavored. Thanks to its tolerance of heat, salt, a wide range of soils and other adverse conditions, Eastern Redcedar is also put to good use on the farm in windbreaks and in city landscapes for hedges, screens, clumps or even as specimen trees.

History/Lore/Use:
The Eastern Red cedar is an ancient tree, dating back to aboriginal America, where fossil evidence indicates it covered large portions of the continent.

The early explorers took note of the tree. Arthur Barlowe and Phillip Amadus were quoted as saying the trees were "the tallest and reddest cedars in the world" when they arrived at Roanoke Island in 1564. Colonial craftsmen lost no time in using the wood from the Eastern Red cedar for furniture and fences as it had superior weathering capability and was easy to work with. The wood was a staple of the pencil industry for over a century until supplies became exhausted and the industry switched to more plentiful western cedars. Birds are very fond of the berries, the Cedar Waxwing taking its name from the tree whose fruit is its favorite food.

Cedar Tree Trivia

Cedar Trees belong to the Cypress family and may also be referred to as arbor vitae or tree of life.

The heartwood of young cedar trees often rots due to the lack of natural oils. As a result the mature cedar trees often have hollow trunks which make great homes for various forest animals.

The Cedar Tree is depicted on Lebanon's flag, symbolizing immortality and tolerance.

Solomon's temple was made entirely of cedar wood, cut from the great cedar forests of Lebanon

Eastern White Cedar (Thuja occidentalis) can be seen growing from cracks in rocks and swamps. Its bark is soft and peels easily and was used to make crafts, in construction and for medicine.

White tailed deer eat the twigs of the cedar tree during the winter months.

It is believed that tea, made from the bark and leaves of the Eastern white cedar was the cure for scurvy amongst Jaques Cartier's crew. Hence the Thuja species was nicknamed arbor vitae or "tree of life".

Pencils are made from Incense Cedar

Cedar is used in incense, usually in the form of sawdust. The pungent resin is easily released as smoke.

Furniture makers use cedar to line blanket boxes because the oil from the cedar tree is a natural insect repellent thus protecting its contents.

Cedar Wood

Western red cedar wood is popular for outdoor construction projects like fences, decks and shingles as it is decay-resistant.

Cigar-box cedar or Spanish cedar is used to line blanket boxes as it repels moths from ruining blankets or clothing that is stored inside and it has a pleasant fragrance.

Spanish cedar has been listed in CITES as an endangered species.

Cedar wood is not recommended for use in saunas. The moisture and humidity causes the cedar to turn black and look dirty after a short period of time. Mold causes health problems and an unpleasant odour.

The richly grained Cedar lumber is perfect for outdoor projects such as decks, fences, gazebos, pool cabanas, and garden sheds as it is extremely weather resistant.

Cedar is virtually pitch and resin free, the wood easily accepts a range of finishes, from fine oils and stains, to solid coatings and paint.

Cedar hedges are less likely to die as a result of disease, insects, or injury caused by the animal population.
