Pinus contorta 'Chief Joseph'


Pinus contorta 'Chief Joseph'

A young graft, nothing comes close to this for foliage winter colour, and shines like a beacon in the garden. Turns a mid green in the growing season

Makes a fairly narrow upright tree, will probably grow about 15-20cms per year once established

What a lovely colour, and a great contrast. What height does it eventually reach?

I would guess 10-12 feet in time Sheila
