Nursery contributed plant descriptions

DWARF. Alpine plants tend to hunker down and stay small as a defense against the forces of winter. This mini-conifer demonstrates such characteristics, with a dense, irregular growth habit and a miniature scale. Foliage has a variety of looks, from congested to more open, which adds to the small plant's alpine charm. Enjoy it in rock garden, trough or container.
