MINIATURE. Green above and white below, the two-tone needles are typical of the species, but this plant is unique with its gnome-like stature. From a wide, rounded base, layers of dense branches slowly taper to a point at the top. 2' X 1'. Texture, color and form work together to give 'Gnom' a pleasing appearance that deserves use as a focal point.
