Vanderwolf's Pyramid Pine
Pinus flexilis ‘Vanderwolf’s Pyramid’
Vanderwolf’s Pyramid Limber Pine combines long blue-green needles with branches that rise in an orderly pattern. The foliage gives its substantial evergreen crown a soft-looking texture.
Young trees have a clear pyramidal outline that broadens with age. Use it as a specimen or a generously spaced screen, allowing for continued height and spread.
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: 12 ft; larger with age
• Height: 25 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.
