   If so, it could be Taxodium ascendens, which grows much more upright:

   I have a bald cypress (straight species) in the backyard and I used 
   to get the same thing from my neighbors as well.  Every fall they'd
   tell me it was such a shame that my beautiful evergreen was dying.
   I kept telling them it was a *deciduous* conifer, but oh well...  :)
