Pinus strobus 'Blue Shag'
Pinus strobus 'Blue Shag', also known as 'Blue Shag' Eastern White Pine, is a dwarf conifer highly valued for its dense, rounded habit and the beautiful silvery-blue color of its foliage. This compact selection of the Eastern White Pine forms a small, bushy shrub that adds texture and structure to rock gardens, dwarf conifer beds, and alpine gardens. Its soft, blue-green needles with silver reflections are grouped in delicate fascicles, creating an airy and elegant effect year-round. Thanks to its slow growth and naturally compact silhouette, it is perfectly suited for small gardens, foundation plantings, or container cultivation. Very hardy and low-maintenance, this conifer prefers well-drained soils and sunny locations, while tolerating cold climates.
