Old-growth timber has more decay resistance

Q. I made some decorative gates with cypress, but now after two years, I am seeing some rot. Isn’t cypress decay resistant naturally? I did notice that the annual growth rings were widely spaced compared to cypress I used before. What other species are rot or decay resistant?
