A unique, dwarf pine with 5″ blue-green needles densely covering this rounded conifer and miniature gray to blue cones even when young. These conifers grow to about 4 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 5 feet with needles to the ground at a slow rate. Can be expected to live for 50 years or more.
Grow in full sunlight with sharp drainage. Although adaptable and not particular to soil type, ‘Coney Island’ will thrive in acidic soils and can show signs of chlorosis (yellowing) of the foliage in alkaline soils. This is a selection of a native North American species.
