A variegated variety with a layered pyramidal form. Each needle has bands of yellow contrasting bands of blue-green. Color is most vibrant on healthy plants.
The legendary Dragon Eyed parviflora, mine all date from John Mitch's plant and have particularly fine zonation. John's original plant, which he was sadly forced to sell (not by Gary) now resides at Gee Farms, the size of it continues to amaze me.
