Very interesting specimen pine with dwarf habit. It grows only to 5-6 ft tall. Can be grown in a pot as miniature pine tree or in the ground as a unique specimen plant. You can keep it as a real miniature Christmas tree year after year. Has excellent drought resistance once established. Avoid irrigation in the canopy. The dwarf variety shown on the pictures is grafted on regular pine; the large needles on the bottom (below graft) eventually die back.
