Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A single leaf Mexican Pinyon pine with juvenile blue needles! Plant has a very narrow form and is very slow growing. Great color and incredibly unusual! We have also seen it listed as Pinus monophylla - which is likely the more appropriate species. The introduction was by Larry Stanley, owner of Stanley and Son's Nursery in Boring, OR who has it listed as cembroides - so we'll stick by that until further notice.
