Pinus Sylvestrus Globosa Viridis

Pine

Globosa Viridis Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris ‘Globosa Viridis’) develops a small pyramidal outline with deep green needles. A later flush of growth can bring a lighter green contrast.

Its compact proportions make it useful as a conifer accent in a mixed border.

Choose sun and well-drained soil; Scots pine prefers acidic conditions.
