고독한 사이프러스-고독한 편백나무-Lone Cypress-Cupressus macrocarpa

The Lone Cypress is a Monterey cypress tree located in Pebble Beach, California. Standing atop a granite headland overlooking Carmel Bay, the tree has become a Western icon and has been called one of the most photographed trees in North America.

 

The Lone Cypress is a tree from a cypress species, commonly referred to as Monterey cypress. The tree could be about 250 years old, and for the last 65 years, cables have held it in place. The Lone Cypress is significant to the Pebble Beach as a live trademark. Every televised golf tournament shows the Lone Cypress. The tree is among the most photographed in North America.

Location And Description

The Lone Cypress stands on a hillside in Pebble Beach, California. The rock, where the tree stands, is off the 17-Mile Drive. The location of the tree falls between two famous golf courses, the 99-year-old public Pebble Beach Golf Links and the 90-year-old private Cyprus Point Golf Course. Apart from the Lone Cypress, other scenic attractions along the 17-Mile Drive include Bird Rock and Del Monte Forest, which holds Monterey cypress trees. Strong winds of between 60 and 70 miles per hour, as well as the rock on which the Lone Cypress grows, have prevented proper growth of the tree. The Lone Cypress has a height of 25 feet, whereas other Monterey cypress trees are as tall as 80 feet. With the roots spread limited, the tree’s canopy size does not extend much. The Lone Cypress receives phosphorus and potash which strengthen the roots.

Hesperocyparis macrocarpa is a coniferous tree. It is commonly known as the Monterey cypress and is one of several species of cypress trees endemic to California.

The Monterey cypress is found naturally only on the Central Coast of California. The natural distributional range of the species during modern times is confined to two small relict populations near Carmel, California, at Cypress Point in Pebble Beach and at Point Lobos. Historically during the peak of the last ice age, Monterey cypress would have likely comprised a much larger forest that extended much further north and south.
