Pinus Pumila Glauca
Blue Dwarf Siberian Pine
Blue Siberian Dwarf Pine (Pinus pumila ‘Glauca’) grows with an irregular upright form and distinctly blue needles. Silvery undersides brighten the foliage, giving the plant more depth than a flat blue surface.
Its dwarf framework suits a small conifer garden or a rocky setting. Leave room around the branches so its individual outline can develop naturally and remain visible.
Choose a sunny position with soil that drains freely. Water during establishment and leave enough room for the branches to develop without crowding.
