Its trunk can grow up to 10 ft. in diameter. It is distinguished from other closely related species by its drooping branches. It has needle-like leaves that range between 1 and 2 inches long organized into in dense clusters on short shoots that range from bright green (new growth) to glaucous blue-green.
