PINUS CEMBRA
Grower Notes:
Pinus cembra is commonly referred to as the Swiss Stone Pine or Arolla Pine. It is a slow-growing pine with a narrow, pyramidal habit when young, maturing into a more open, rounded form. It features soft, dark green to blue needle bundles and short, oblong cones that are greenish purple when they emerge, maturing to purplish-brown.
The Swiss Stone Pine should only be grown in full sun. It prefers well-drained porous soil with average moisture. It can be drought tolerant once established. It will not tolerate standing water.
