DESCRIPTION
- BOSNIAN PINE Pinus Heldreichii Leucodermis 5 SEEDS
- Decorative pyramidal shape. More resistant than Pinus nigra.
- A close relative of Bosnian pine, this slow-growing evergreen tree is prized for its toughness and beauty. It is native to the Balkans.
- This dense, sometimes shrubby pine bears long, rigid, sharp, medium- to dark-green needles in bundles of two. In spring, trees produce tiny male cones and oblong, egg-shaped female cones on the previous year's growth. The female cones are covered with purple scales that turn woody and yellowish brown as they mature. In their second year, female cones open their bracts to release winged seeds.
- Heldreich pine does best in ample sun and moist, well-drained, acidic to alkaline soil. Its tolerance of salt spray makes it a great selection for seaside landscapes. Use it as a single specimen, or cluster it in groves or windrows. (info source: Learn2Grow.com)
