| Lebanon Cedar |
 |
| The Lebanon Cedar once flourished throughout the Lebanon mountains of southern Lebanon and Syria. Highly prized for it's soft, fragrant wood, this cedar was a valuable export during Biblical times. Lebanon cedars were heavily harvested for hundreds of years, and the few remaining ancient trees are now protected. A conifer of the pine family, the Lebanon cedar has needlelike leaves and bears its seeds in scaled clusters called cones. |
