    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This weeping cultivar was found as a branch mutation on the much larger 'Pendula'. This dwarf stays much smaller, showing beautiful blue-green needles and a cascading, graceful form.

    By: Conifer Kingdom

    Gracefully pendulous stems radiate out on this distinctive and rare witches broom of Pinus strobus 'Pendula'. Long, bright, bluish-green needles give this 3-6' tall by 4-8' wide multi-stemmed shrub look lush. The gently cascading horizontal growth makes it an excellent specimen for rock garden or groundcover. To get height out of this shrub, it must be staked; this cultivar was a 2009 selection for Collector's Conifer of the year. S/M
