Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A columnar form with beautiful large dark green needles. It is not extremely narrow - it will be about 3' wide when 8' tall.
Evergreen conifer with dark green needles that grow tightly and densely on the branches. This fastigiate form of the species will make a great addition to any garden, large or small.
A slender Bosnian pine with dense upright branching and long clusters of green needles. Becomes more dense as it ages. Resistant to many diseases, including Verticillium Wilt. Drought tolerant and resistant to salt spray. Quite a combination and serves it well to survive in a variety of locations.
Pinus leucodermis (heldreichii) 'Satellit' Dense, brushlike clusters of long, luxurious needles give this superior, narrow cultivar a full look, but its slim, upright form fits in a smaller garden. When young, the rich green spire has an open look, but with maturity, the upright shoots fill in with tightly held needles. Year-round elegance and reliable performance make it a choice addition to the sunny site, a great focal point with exceptional health and tolerance to disease, salt and drought.
A upright form of pine that stays shorter than 25'. The deep green needles on this tree are thick along the vertical branches creating a lush dense effect. The texture of the P. leucodermis always catches the eye in the garden.

Bosnian Pine is a superb tree in its typical form but this is mo' better for the urban landscape. Dense fastigiate branching and dark green gorgeous needles on a slow-growing narrow cylinder of a tree. Just 6' tall in 10 years and very narrow so it won't outgrow its space anytime soon.
