Cupressus torulosa, commonly known as the Himalayan cypress or Bhutan cypress, is a species of cypress tree native to the mountainous northern regions of the Indian subcontinent, primarily the Himalayas.[3]

It is a large tree, growing up to 45 m (150 ft) in height.[4]

Distribution

Cupressus torulosa is an evergreen conifer tree species found on limestone terrain in the western Himalaya at 300–2,800 metres (980–9,190 ft).[3][4] Information on its distribution further east is conflicting. It may occur in Vietnam.[3] However, according to Conifers of Vietnam, only cultivated forms exist in Vietnam,[5] and the Flora of China reports it from Tibet.[4]
