    Larix gmelinii var. olgensis

    Larix gmelinii var. olgensis (Olga larch / “Olga Bay larch”) is a deciduous conifer: it carries green needles in spring and summer, then turns a beautiful yellow in autumn before shedding. Very hardy, it thrives especially in climates with cool summers and cold winters. Its young conical shape becomes broader and more expressive with age, making it an excellent architectural tree for large gardens and parks, in soil that stays moist but well-drained.

    Larix laricina

    Larix laricina (tamarack / American larch) is a deciduous conifer: its green needles form a light, airy mass in spring and summer, then turn golden yellow in autumn before falling. Very cold-hardy, it appreciates moist (even waterlogged) soils, while still being able to grow in cool, well-drained ground. A superb structural tree for large gardens and parks, especially striking near a water feature.
