Notes

'Hagoromo' Japanese white pine (Pinus parviflora 'Hagoromo') is a tree for borders, containers, specimens, and winter interest. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It grows slowly and forms a dense, evergreen shape with fragrant needles. Deer rarely make it their first choice. Birds visit it too.

Pairs well with Blue star creeper, Fountain grass, and Euonymus.
