Pinus cembra ‘Blue Mound’ grows slowly and has such a soft, fluffy look that it begs to be touched. Branches have a lush, bushy look, the result of 5-needle clusters of long, two-tone needles that twist and weave together. Extremely hardy, with a compact form that requires little pruning and makes an elegant pyramidal addition to open spaces in full sun. It grows more slowly than ‘Algonquin Pillar’ or ‘Silver Sheen’ and performs admirably as an accent or in a mass.
