Choosing the planting site is the first step is your yard.  For cypress trees the Hydrology and soil characteristics are important.  This largely determines whether sites are suited to grow cypress.  Soils Cypress grows on a wide variety of soils, ranging from sands to clays to mucks and peat, provided that moisture is adequate. 

 The best soils are moderately well drained, moist sandy loams, but these are likely to favor other tree species as well.  Cypress can grow on poorly drained clays, and pond cypress, especially, can grow well on acidic, organic soils.

Shade tolerance Cypress is only moderately tolerant of shade, so for best growth, do not plant cypress seedlings under a dense stand of trees. If a thick over story is present, then some trees will need to be killed and possibly removed to provide adequate sunlight.

Cypress Variety We recommend that land owners plant the cypress variety, bald or pond, better matched to the hydrological regime, soils, and landscape setting of the selected site. Sites that are periodically flooded are favorable for bald cypress, whereas isolated depressions with stagnant water, mainly from rainfall, are better suited to pond cypress.

Landowners can grow cypress seedlings, but this takes at least a year or more and requires facilities such as a greenhouse or outdoor nursery. Timing of Planting The best time to plant bare-root cypress seedlings is while they are dormant (November to March). Containerized cypress seedlings can be planted year-round.

   What to Expect Planting success of cypress is often very high. Cypress trees planted in yards and kept well watered and weeded can grow very rapidly, even 12 feet  in three years  Those planted in more natural settings grow more slowly, but require much less maintenance.
