Emerald Dwarf Mugo Pine has fresh green medium length needles and an attractive cluster of brown buds that form a very slow growing, tight cushion. Its tidy uniform shape performs well in the rock garden and in containers. This dwarf variety is perfect for small gardens, rock gardens, or as an accent plant. It is highly versatile, thriving in well-drained soils and tolerating a variety of growing conditions, including drought once established.
