Pinus Densiflora Globosa
Globe Japanese Red Pine
Pinus densiflora ‘Globosa’
Globosa Japanese Red Pine forms a dense, rounded to egg-shaped crown on numerous upright branches. Its green needles are relatively short, giving the plant a close, substantial texture.
The compact outline supplies evergreen structure among flowering shrubs. It broadens with age, and the bark becomes another feature as the branch framework develops.
Plant in full sun with well-drained soil. Water the root zone during establishment and leave room for the branches to develop.
Approximate garden size
• Width: 6 ft; larger with age
• Height: 6 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 4; local summer conditions also affect suitability.
