cedars
Fragrant closet wood
Cedars are large evergreen coniferous trees known for their aromatic wood and spreading branches.
The wood resists decay, making it prized for construction, chests, and closets—hence cedar chest, cedar shingles.
Several unrelated trees share the name due to similar fragrance or appearance.
Cedars appear frequently in place names: Cedar Rapids, the cedars of Lebanon.
