Australian Cypress

Natural resins in the wood impart a distinctive odour to white cypress and are believed to contribute to the timber's impressive natural durability. Heartwood is resistant to termites. Life expectancy for above ground applications is greater than 40 years and up to 25 years in-ground.

Cypress is used as flooring, cladding, and fencing material. Decorative uses of white cypress include quality indoor and outdoor furniture, turnery, joinery, carving, parquetry, and linings. Other common applications include oyster stakes and jetty piles in low-salinity environments, as well as beehives.
