I have doubt about the conservation status of the Lebanon Cedar. Could someone verify it? 500LL 08:51, May 29, 2005 (UTC)
The trees are in threat due to global warming: http://greenprophet.com/2008/08/07/1409/cedars-of-lebanon-climate-change/
Is this now a subspecies? Anyone know why? Just curious. -- SB_Johnny| talk| books 22:30, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Is the Lebanon cedar monoicous ? Baronnet ( talk) 16:10, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
I don't know if the Sacred Text of Christianity means anything on a nuetral site like this, but the Cedars were extremely prized and highly valued in Ancient Isreal and other Middle Eastern civilizations, according to Genesis and 1 Kings.
Among the specifications of Noah's Ark, it said "gopher wood" in King James, and it could easily be assumed that the Cedars were also used, considering they still serve as excellent lumber.
If King Solomon has any notablility, 1 Kings also says that, quote:
"...and cedar as plentiful as sycamore-fig trees in the foothills."
It probably means nothing around here, but it is pretty interesting to note.
Solomon also had another palace in the "Forest of Lebanon", 1 Kings 10:21, excerpt.
The trees were very valuable. In fact they still are, but millinieums of use make them kind of rare.
You know, it's rather sad, in my opinion, that the Bible isn't taken seriously as a history text, merely because it mentions God. God is the point of the Bible, but the Book has serious history in it as well.
I choose to believe in the Christ part, but historians could learn a bit from it, whether they believe or not.

The contents indicate that the Lebanese Cedar can drop heavy branches without warning. Below I have included a reference. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10836557
I'm not computer literate enough to add to the entry but perhaps some other reader could do so if it is considered appropriate.

Why do the branches drop? Stuart hallam ( talk) 00:48, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
It says that the cedars of Lebanon are under threat, I would like to see the most recent reference so that the conservation status may be changed. Ralphw ( talk) 00:23, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

The cones heading doesn't seem the right place for this statement. I'm not familiar enough with the article to move it.
"C. libani grows rapidly until the age of 45 to 50 years; growth becomes extremely slow after the age of 70."
JDE 94.126.214.30 ( talk) 07:36, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
In different places, I read that the female cones mature in 12 months, 17-18 months, or they are produced every other year. Could anyone clarify which of these is correct? -- Roland ( talk) 17:05, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
