Pinus Wallichiana Frosty
Frosty Himalayan Pine
Frosty Himalayan Pine (Pinus wallichiana ‘Frosty’) combines long green needles with bands of creamy yellow. The pale markings lighten the canopy and give the foliage a layered, variegated effect.
The tree develops a broad, upright framework, and its long cones provide an additional winter feature. Give it enough open space to show both the needle pattern and the developing crown.
Choose a sunny position with soil that drains freely. Water during establishment and leave enough room for the branches to develop without crowding.
