Most modern sources consider it a distinct species, but there are some authors who consider it a subspecies of the cedar of lebanon (cedrus libani), classifying it as cedrus libani var. Atlantica Cedrus atlantica glauca is a large conifer that can reach 50 meters in height and has a trunk diameter between 2 and 2.5 meters. It is very similar in all respects to the other varieties of Lebanon cedar, and it is difficult to discern the differences. Atlas cedar forms forests on mountain slopes between 1,300 and 2,200 meters. Often these forests are cedar only, occasionally mingling with the numismatic abies, juniperus oxycedrus, quercux ilex and acer opalus. Some of these forests are home to the endangered species of the monkey of Gibraltar, a primate that in prehistory had a much wider distribution in northern Morocco and Algeria. Cedrus atlantica glauca variety has been awarded the award of garden merit by the Royal Horticultural Society of the United Kingdom and is grown as an ornamental tree throughout Europe. In southern France there are several cedar plantations for logging that are mainly made up of atlas cedars. Curiosities: In the south garden of the White House in Washington, DC, there is an Atlas cedar tree in which President Jimmy Carter had a tree house built for his daughter Amy.
