Pinus strobus 'Nana'

Nana dwarf white pine

If you're walking through the woods in New England there's a good chance you are walking past Pinus strobus, but 'Nana' provides a welcome contrast: this cultivar name is used as a catch-all for a variety of dwarf forms of white pine, most of which are so slow-growing that they never reach more than 10 feet. This cultivar retains the proportions of ordinary white pines, remaining narrower than it is tall. Plant in sunny borders and in rock gardens.
