Uncle Fogy Pine (Contorted Jack Pine)

code: 5046

Wildly undulating, pendulous branches give unique character to every plant of this distinctive form of Jack Pine. Plants bend and swoop to create a curvy, living sculpture decorated with resinous winter buds. This collector’s plant, first discovered in a garden in Richfield, Minnesota, seems to be a reference to everyone’s eccentric relative. Extremely hardy and adaptable, it tolerates heat, cold and dry, sandy or poor soils.
Hardy to -50°F
Maximum Elevation: 8,000 Feet
