Virginian Cedarwood, also known as Red Cedar, is a slow-growing evergreen tree that grows in the east of America and southeast Canada.
It is not classed as a true 'cedar' as it belongs to the Cupressaceae family and not the Pinaceae family to which Atlas Cedarwood belongs.
Cedarwood Virginiana is the ethical choice for Cedarwood, as it is one of the most abundant and quickly grown trees that isn't endangered. The production of the essential oil does not require the felling of the tree.
