The cypress tree has traditionally represented mourning and grief. In Greek mythology, it was associated with Hades, god of the underworld. Vincent Van Gogh painted a lot of cypress trees in his later works, before committing suicide.

More recently, it has been associated with immortality. For more information, see: http://www.answers.com/topic/cypress
