Photo Print: Sunny Cypress Trees by Dmitry Nesvetaylov

The main attraction of Lake Sukko is undoubtedly the group of beautiful trees growing right on the lake. These noble cypresses, contrary to the laws of nature, leaning on the surface of the water, strive to rise above the surrounding mountains. These trees grow in North America - in Florida, Texas and some places in Mexico, where they reach 50 meters in height, and are known as Taxodium two-rowed, or Swamp cypress. Swamp cypress was introduced from America to Europe around the middle of the 17th century. Cypresses were brought to the Kuban as an experiment in the 30s of the XX century. The grove was planted in 1934-1935, and it consists of 32 trees. The local climate suited the Cypress Trees, they have taken root very well.
