Chamaecyparis nootkatensis
Nootka falsecypress

The 1/4 - 1/2" diameter cones are globose and glaucous, ranging from purplish brown to reddish brown. There are four to six peltate scales per fruit, each with a prominent, pointed tip. The rounded cones with peltate scales readily separate this genus from related plants.
