Female trees have small one inch round cones. Lives well in a pot with very columnar habit. Usually no more than 2 feet in width when under 20 feet in height. Looks lovely beside doors or showing off a corner. Mine has done well in the same pot for many years. Once established in ground is very drought tolerant.
