Bennett's Contorted White Pine

Bennett’s Contorted white pine has long, thin, blue-green needles and furrowed bark. However it is the bare, contorted and somewhat weeping branches that provide strong sculptural interest and make it a striking addition to the garden. Easily grown in full sun but tolerates some shade in moderate moist, well-drained soil. Use as a specimen, bonsai, or accent plant.
