Cupressus sempervirens (Italian Cypress) is a conifer known in Great Britain as the "Italian Cypress", although it is unlikely that the species is native to Italy, as it is originally from the Eastern Mediterranean. However, it is very certain that it has been widely spread since ancient times and that it represented, over the centuries, one of the typical characteristics of Italy and Mediterranean France. Extremely long-lived, it has an erect habit, in the shape of a cone, with leaves starting from the base (although it should be specified that, if it is grown from seeds, the genes are not always maintained and the plant loses its uniformity and sometimes some branches grow in except for its perfectly conical shape). The bark is brownish gray, the foliage is evergreen in the form of overlapping scales, dark green, with a special fragrance. On the same plant, there are female and male fruits that produce green, hard, round fruits that turn gray-brown when ripe. It adapts to any type of soil, even poor or dry, as well as clayey or sandy. Nowadays it is used almost entirely as a rootstock for the many varieties it produced (and which are, rightly, preferred for their indisputable superior properties), but also to form hedges and wind barriers.

Resistance zones for plants in Europe:
Average annual minimum temperatures in °C*
Zone 1 < -45.5°C
Zone 2 -45.5°C / -40.1°C
Zone 3 -40.0°C / -34.5°C
Zone 4 -34.4°C / -28.9°C
Zone 5 -28.8°C / -23.4°C
Zone 6 -23.3°C / -17.8°C
Zone 7 -17.7°C / -12.3°C
Zone 8 -12.2°C / -6.7°C
Zone 9 -6.6°C / -1.2°C
Zone 10 -1.1°C / +4.4°C
Zone 11 > +4.4°C
* Minimum temperatures are an important factor that determines plant resistance (the ability of plants to survive in places where these minimum temperatures can occur).
This principle was created in the early 1960s by the "Department of Agriculture in the United States of America" and was then adapted for Europe by W. Heinz and D. Schreiber.
Based on this principle, Europe was divided into 11 zones.
