Read detailed description :

Lovely bluish conifer, the needles are bluish, twisted and stay on the plant for 4 years, maintaining density and colour. Young, it is erect with irregular shoots giving a japanese bonsaï effect, filling out into a rounded form with age. After about 10 years it will bear a few green, then brown cones, which will stay on the plant for a few years. Rustic and easy to grow, tolerating any well drained soil and a sunny exposure.
