Botanical profile

Pinus strobus 'Angel Falls'

Pinus strobus 'Angel Falls' is a weeping form of the Eastern white pine, with a narrow, gracefully cascading habit, whose long, flexible blue-green needles cascade down its arching branches. The trunk, usually staked in the nursery, forms a living vertical column, perfect for isolated planting, rock gardens, or light shade gardens. Its fine, luminous foliage provides a airy texture, while maintaining its decorative presence all year round. Very hardy, tolerant of cold, wind, and various types of well-drained soils, 'Angel Falls' grows at a moderate pace, maintaining a fluid silhouette without the need for pruning. It is ideal for bringing movement, verticality, and lightness to carefully designed landscapes.
