    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Related to P. chinensis, these rare podocarps grow to an eventual 20' tall, a striking architectural feature for the garden, with "needles" of 1/2" held against the stem giving an almost tufted appearance. Best in full sun or the light understory. Though drought tolerant, growth can be boosted by light summer watering. Frost hardy to 10 °F or so, USDA zone 8, and possibly lower.
