The Swiss mountain pine is a spreading cone-shaped conifer, with long mid-green needles that cover its branches. As the tree grows lower branches need to be removed to reveal the trunk. Very hardy and ideal for cold areas or an exposed garden. Although it is ultimately a large tree, it?s quite slow growing and will tolerate pruning to prevent it from getting too large. Mature plants produce attractive brown cones.
