Pinus mugo ‘Ophir’ is a dwarf evergreen Mountain Pine of great beauty during all seasons. It forms a dense, globose mound with a flattened top. Its needles are pale yellow-green in spring and summer and turn rich golden in the winter. Occasional insignificant flowers produce small pine cones. Brightening up the garden as the season darkens, ‘Ophir’ is an extremely slow-growing pine that adds about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of new growth per year. A perfect choice for small gardens and containers!
