Growing and Maintenance Tips:


A formal conical evergreen, this pine requires almost no pruning to maintain its compact shape. Use in pairs to mark the entrance to decks, patios or gardens. Younger plants should be protected (burlap wrap) from extremely cold drying winter winds and excessive drought until well established (2-3 years min). Plant in a rich, acidic soil.
