Pinus leucodermis Emerald Arrow

Emerald Arrow Bosnian Pine

Pinus heldreichii ‘Emerald Arrow’
Emerald Arrow Bosnian Pine carries paired dark green needles on ascending branches. Pale needle sheaths and bark create small silver-white highlights within the foliage.

The upright crown brings height and year-round structure to a planting. Its comparatively narrow outline works as a focal point or in a small, well-spaced group.

Plant in full sun with well-drained soil. Water the root zone during establishment and leave room for the branches to develop. A site with cool summers generally suits this pine better than prolonged hot, humid conditions.

Approximate garden size
• Width: 8 ft; larger with age
• Height: 15 ft; larger with age
These are planning estimates for an established garden plant, commonly reached in 10–25 years, rather than final mature limits.

Hardiness
• Hardy to USDA Zone 5; local summer conditions also affect suitability.
