Evergreen Pinus Strobus (White Pine)
Color Name: Niagara Falls
'Niagara Falls' is a striking White Pine that can be left alone to grow naturally as a graceful weeping shrub or staked to form a magnificent weeping tree with a leader that weeps over at the top of the stake and secondary branches that flow downwards like Niagara Falls for a full and lush structure. The height of the stake, which can be anywhere from 6 to 12 feet or tall, will determine how tall it grows as a tree over time. In its natural shrub form, Niagara Falls makes for a nice specimen in landscape borders and rock gardens or to spill over walls and boulders. As a tree, it serves as a focal point specimen in the landscape or home foundation plantings. Either way, clothed in long blue-green needles, this graceful beauty provides elegance and style that will not go unnoticed.
Growing Tips:
Location: Plant in well-draining soil in a sunny to partially shaded area of your garden.
Watering: Maintain consistent moisture, especially during the establishment period. Once established, it's more drought-tolerant.
Pruning: Minimal pruning is required, but you can shape the tree as desired.
