Pinus densiflora Pendula Weeping Red Pine

Weeping Red Pine is a cascading form of pine that can either be allowed to run along as a groundcover or staked initially to form a small arching tree. Handsome, bright green needles are attractive year-round and complement the orange-colored bark perfectly. This cultivar forms a low-spreading shrub, capable of cascading over rocks or down walls. Sometimes grafted as a standard, it forms a beautiful weeping mound. Ideal for growing amongst rocks or near ponds, it is easily trimmed and trained to the required size and shape.

Soil: well-drained and slightly acidic soil. Avoid heavy clay soils.
Conditions: Full sun.
Size: Height 2m x width 5m if initially staked.
