Pinus nigra 'Helga'

Growing and Maintenance Tips:

As with most pines, this unusual plant grows best in a well-drained soil. If necessary, pinching the candles in mid-spring will encourage a more compact form. Helga Dwarf Austrian pine is a perfect choice for small space gardens, containers and courtyards.
