Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Beautiful, silvery blue-green needles make this striking 8' shrub/tree an excellent accent plant. This slow growing selection maintains a uniform and densely branched, upright, somewhat pyramidal form which makes a statement in the rock garden or container. Its comparatively fine texture gives it a nice contrast to other landscape plants. This is a delight for any style of garden. S/M
An upright rather fast-growing variety with stunning blue foliage. Originally from Germany, this pine makes a great substitute for 'Vanderwolf's Pyramid'.
Blue Angel' is a variety of Japanese White Pine with dense branching, shorter needles, and a medium-dwarf habit. The branching habit makes this tree an excellent choice for bonsai, but 'Blue Angel' also makes a superb landscape focal point with its upright form and unique color. It will develop a tight form even without any pruning and is surprisingly low maintenance for such a gorgeous and manicured-looking plant.
