Dunkeld Larch, Swiss Larch, Larix x eurolepis
Larix x marschlinsii (Dunkeld Larch) is a fast-growing deciduous conifer adorned with a round, straight trunk and long, horizontally spreading branches, and slender pendulous branchlets. The crown is conical, dense, becoming irregular, and more open with age. Unlike most cone-bearing trees, Dunkeld Larch loses its foliage each winter. Among the earliest trees to come into leaf in spring, its blue-green needles turn bright yellow before being shed in the fall. Dunkeld Larch is a hybrid of European larch (L. laricina) and Japanese larch (L. kaempferi)
