Pinus mugo 'Gnom'

Dwarf Mugo Pine

Gnom Mugo Pine forms a compact mound of dark needles. The evergreen foliage gives it a substantial appearance on a small scale.

Green cones mature toward brown from late summer into autumn. Its low outline suits a rock garden or a small garden composition.

Choose a sunny site with well-drained soil. Routine clipping is unnecessary; allow the natural branching pattern to develop.
