  • DESCRIPTION

    Pinus Mugo Pumilio is also known as the Swiss Mountain Pine. This is a low-growing, slow-growing spreading coniferous evergreen shrub. The needles are long and mid-green and give a bushy appearance to the plant. Mature plants produce attractive brown cones. 

    Pinus Mugo Pumilio is the most commonly used of the low growing pines as it has a very bushy appearance and is slightly faster growing than other varieties. 

    Swiss Mountain Pine will attract Songbirds and capture a pleasant visual attraction.
