You might consider a Cedrus deodora 'Eisregen'. While it doesn't weep or get as large as the Cedrus libani, it's a beautiful frosty blue and supposedly hardier. Mine was planted August 2007. It receives no protection from winds sweeping across the koi pond in front of it. There is disagreement about the hardiness of this cultivar. While one winter does not tell the story, it seems to be dong very well here at the moment.
