Product Description
A cone-shaped cedar topiary on a classic A-frame silhouette, available in three heights, from 36 in to 60 in. The trunk is carbon steel set into a cement-filled base for stability, and the PE foliage is fixed to the trunk with adhesive rather than woven or moulded in place, with extra leaves added to build density.
Cedar is one of the most convincing shapes to render artificially, because a real clipped cedar cone is already a formal, geometric object — an artificial one is not fighting the same battle a faux fern or palm has to fight. This A-frame form, tapering from a wide cement base to a point, is the classic pairing shape for flanking a doorway.
The foliage is glued to the trunk rather than woven or moulded, with an extra 10 leaves added specifically to thicken the density. This is a durable indoor method and holds up well in normal handling; it's worth lifting rather than dragging the piece during a move, since a glued attachment is more sensitive to rough handling than a woven one.

Which height should I buy for a doorway pairing?
| Height | Setting it suits | What it does in the space |
|---|---|---|
| 36 in | Low porch rail or step | A modest flanking pair either side of a door |
| 48 in | A standard entry door | The height most doorway pairs land on |
| 60 in | Taller entries and porticoes | Reads as substantial; check the base footprint clears the step |
For a matched pair at a doorway, order two of the same height in the same transaction so both arrive from the same production run.
What arrives in the box, and what do I have to do to it?
This ships compressed against the steel trunk, and the foliage needs opening out by hand once unpacked — work from the base upward and separate each glued cluster rather than pulling on individual leaves.
A cement-filled base is heavier than most, which helps it stand firm outdoors but also means two people should lift it out of the box rather than one. Inspect the base and the trunk before you accept delivery, and photograph anything damaged before you unpack further.
Who should choose a different height, or a different tree?
- For spots with sustained direct sun, ask us about a UV-rated model instead — this piece is built for fade resistance rather than a rated sun performance.
- If a matched pair is the plan, order two of the same height in one cart so both come from the same run.
- If a strong, weighted base for wind matters most, the steel trunk and cement base here are built for that; step footprint is the thing to check against the 60 in height.
Common questions
Is the trunk really steel?
Yes — carbon steel, set into a base filled with thick, solid cement for stability in wind and rain. That's a more substantial armature than the moulded or wire-core trunks used on many artificial trees in this category, and the cement base adds real weight where it matters outdoors.
Can I put this outside through a Canadian winter?
The foliage is fade-resistant and the tree is built for indoor and outdoor placement, stable in wind and rain. A covered entry or porch is the safer bet for sustained exposure through a full winter; for spots with direct, unshaded sun, a UV-rated model is the better fit.
How many should I order for my entrance?
Two, in the same height, ordered together. A single cone beside a door tends to look like its match is missing, which is why this shape is almost always bought and displayed in pairs. Ordering both at once also means they come from the same production run, so the foliage colour and density match.
