The Blue Shag White Pine is a wonderful dense, rounded cushion of soft, irregular blue-green needles, that forms a full plant over 4 feet tall and across within 10 years. It is a great specimen around your house, or in beds of shrubs, and it thrives in rocky areas and on slopes. Use it to add interest and variety anywhere in your garden and mix it with other evergreens of different forms and colors for a low-maintenance way to build a great garden. This is a selected form of the native tree, so it can be used in native plant gardens to great effect. For easy growth and a great rounded shape, it can’t be beaten.
Grow the Blue Shag White Pine in full sun, in well-drained open soil, but it adapts well to many soil types and will grow happily in most locations. Once established it has moderate resistant to normal summer drought periods. It needs no trimming or pruning to maintain it rounded shape, and it has few pests or diseases. It can be grown in pots too, to decorate a terrace or patio, or used as permanent planting in planter boxes, surrounded by changing annual flowers if you wish.
