Cupressus sempervirens ‘Totem’ is the classic Tuscan or Italian Cypress, a fastigiate dark green conifer frequently planted in Mediterranean landscapes. This variety, 'Totem', is a cloned plant, chosen from a typical parent plant of the same type. Each plant from a batch will be uniform, in theory it will be identical to the parent. 'Totem' tends to form multiple branches that grow parallel to the main trunk. In some cases, they may need to be trimmed to balance or maintain the shape of the tree, or they may need to be supported by tying them periodically back into the main canopy. The 'Stricta' type, a much thinner form, is 'pencil-like' and distinct from Totem in that it does not form these side branches.
