Cedars
Famous L.A. hospital
Cedars are large evergreen coniferous trees with fragrant, durable wood, native to mountainous regions of the Mediterranean and Himalayas.
The wood resists rot and insects, making it prized for construction and chests.
Cedar extends loosely to similar aromatic trees: red cedar, white cedar.
The plural often names places where cedars grow or once grew: the Cedars of Lebanon, a neighborhood called The Cedars.
