Evergreen Pinus Strobus (Dwarf White Pine)
×
Color Name: Horsford
Pinus strobus 'Horsford' is a dwarf cultivar of the Eastern white pine, valued for its compact, rounded shape and soft, blue-green needles. Extremely slow-growing, it typically forms a small, dense mound about 1-3 ft tall and wide, making it ideal for rock gardens, small landscapes, and foundation plantings. Its fine texture and tidy form provide year-round interest with very little maintenance.
* Deer Resistant!
* Dense and compact
* Soft, thin, light-green needles
* Great texture and size
* Easy to grow
* Great along foundations, in dwarf plant gardens or perennial beds
* Very hardy
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.
