Cupressus macrocarpa or 'Monterey Cypress' is widely used as a formal hedging plant. Cupressus macrocarpa 'Lambertiana' has a more spreading habit and is used as a windbreak on rural properties. Cupressus macrocarpa Brunniana Aurea has a more golden green foliage and is again suited as a windbreak rather than a formal hedge. Cupressus macrocarpa Greenstead Magnificent is more suited as a specimen tree. Cupressus macrocarpa 'Gold Pillar' is a more upright form as the name suggests.
