Description

This variety of Pinus is an evergreen tree that grows to 5' high and 5' wide. It needs full sun and has an interesting weeping or cascading form. It is tolerant of most soil types but does not like salt spray. It needs to be protected from high winds, and thus, for this reason, should be protected during the winter. It has long and soft needles with a white cast and makes a wonderful specimen tree.

Water Saving Tip:

Check your irrigation controller once a month, and adjust as necessary.

Most plants require only one-third as much water in winter as they do in summer.
