Nursery contributed plant descriptions

DWARF. After a century in cultivation, this intriguing dwarf White Pine is still quite rare and relatively unknown, a curious fact given its many desirable features. The densely-branched plant has an irregular shape in youth, but develops a tight, upright form with long, elegant, smoky-blue needles as it slowly matures. Hardy, rugged and stylish, it stays small enough to fit in a courtyard garden or container.
