Pinus Banksiana 'Uncle Fogy
Uncle Fogy Jack Pine
Pinus banksiana ‘Uncle Fogy’
Uncle Fogy Jack Pine grows into a twisting arrangement of drooping branches. Green needles and sticky winter buds add detail to its loose evergreen silhouette.
Each plant develops a different balance of curves and trailing growth. Choose it for a specimen position where that changing outline can be seen from several directions.
Plant in full sun with well-drained soil. Water the root zone during establishment and leave room for the branches to develop.

• Width: 8 ft; larger with age
• Height: 12 ft; larger with age
