Pinus parviflora 'Tempelhof' (Japanese White Pine) is an evergreen conifer of dense, conical habit clothed in attractive, steel blue needles that are presented in bundles of five. They retain their pretty color throughout the winter. Very conspicuous, the abundant pink and purple cones (produced at a young age) make a wonderful color contrast with the silvery foliage. A moderate grower, 6-9 in. per year (15-22 cm), this cultivar of Japanese White Pine creates a striking landscape element wherever it is planted and makes a terrific specimen tree.
