Description This limber pine cultivar is planted for its distinctive, pyramid shape and long, twisted, silvery, blue-green needles displayed on dense branches.

  Morphology:
This evergreen conifer can grow up to 30’ tall and half as wide. It has a vigorous habit with an ascending, columnar form. The needles, 5 to a bundle, are 2.5” to 3.5” long. They have a very nice blue-green color and are closely spaced together.

  Adaptation:
A superior selection for lawn specimen, accent tree or windbreak. Best in moist, well-drained soil, however, it is very adaptable. Does best in full sun.

  Pests:
Resistant to insects and disease.
