A charming, upright evergreen with rich green color and a naturally sculpted form that adds personality, strength, and year-round structure to the landscape

- Naturally tidy, compact growth needing little care
- Extremely hardy and wind tolerant, perfect for exposed sites
- Slow-growing, long-lived, and reliable
- Adds character, structure, and contrast to any garden design

Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip
Plant Green Penguin in full sun to encourage strong growth and maintain its dense, upright form. It shines when used as an accent among lower plants or paired with rounded evergreens for contrast. Because it grows slowly and stays compact, this pine works well in both formal and natural landscapes. Add a light layer of mulch to retain moisture and give the base a finished, polished look.
Growth Facts
- Hardiness Zone: 3-7
- Mature Height: 6-8' tall

Frequently Asked Questions
