Description

The Glacier Bay Fern Pine is a distinctive, cold-hardier selection that adds unique foliage color to the landscape. Its new growth emerges a striking lime-green to chartreuse, creating a bright accent, before maturing to a cool blue-gray green. This color contrast, combined with its dense, upright pyramidal form and fine texture, makes it a standout specimen or hedge for gardeners seeking something different from the standard green or blue varieties.

• Notable for its color-changing foliage: new growth is vibrant lime-green, maturing to a cool blue-gray green.

• Forms a dense, upright, pyramidal shrub or small tree, more compact than the species.

• Reported to have improved cold tolerance compared to other fern pines.

• Shares the same drought tolerance and low-maintenance characteristics.

• The bright new growth provides excellent seasonal color interest in spring and summer.

• Effective as a colorful specimen, hedge, or container plant.
