Cedrus deodara 'Bush's Electra' aka 'Electra Blue. That would be my recomendation. If zone pushing go with 'Sander's Blue'.

Thanks for the quick replies!I am in Long Island, NY, which is zone 7.I took a look at both the Electra Blue and Sanders Blue.The appropriate tree is the Sanders, as it grows much larger.However, the Electra Blue is a beautiful tree , and i believe i can use this as well.
The main consideration is the graceful growth habit of the Deodara cedars.Some cedars have a more "jagged" appearance, which im not looking for.Thanks again!
