The trunk of this giant can be 3 to 5 meters in diameter. Harveng near Marchienne Castle is home to the largest bald cypress in Europe with a height of over 35 meters and a trunk circumference of 9 meters.
In older trees, breathing roots grow vertically from the ground at the height of the trunk.
This does not happen quickly in Europe, only with plants that are very wet.

The growth form is pyramidal and is best planted as a solitary plant, the trunk is great the bark is red / brown in color and discolored to gray later.
