CYPRESS 'COOK'S PEAK'

I'm not sure how this plant got it's name, but it was given to me by a friend nurseryman. He said it was discovered at Cookes (Cooks) Peak New Mexico. I could not find any information about it, but i have it and it is a fantastic plant. The sapphire blue foliage is stunning and the pyramidal shape make this plant a perfect for flanking an entrance or just to add height to any garden. Literature describe the species ranging in height from 10'-12 to 15'-25' tall and 10'-12 wide. The cultivar I call 'Cooks Peak' looks like it should reach 15'-25' and at most 6 ft wide.
