Product details

A wonderfully columnar form of Scots Pine so tight in habit that one has to get quite close to indentify it.

There are some nicely maturing specimens in the conifer garden at the Harlow Carr arboretum.

The needles appear almost blue when young giving it a highly ornamental feel.

Introduced circa 1856 it is naturally occurring in Europe.

It can reach over 10 metres tall if it isn’t hampered by snow and ice build up which can cause it to fracture.

However there are no such problems in the UK making this a fabulous choice for many aspects.

Mature height: 7-12m

Mature spread: 1-2m
