A highly attractive, very narrow columnar tree, with silky smooth needles that may give a fuzzy appearance from a distance; can windburn in exposed locations, best grown in some shelter, but needs full sun; an excellent choice for smaller landscapes

Stowe Pillar White Pine is primarily valued in the landscape for its rigidly columnar form. It has bluish-green evergreen foliage which emerges creamy white in spring. The needles remain bluish-green throughout the winter. The furrowed gray bark adds an interesting dimension to the landscape.
It is an evergreen tree with a strong central leader and a narrowly upright and columnar growth habit. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage. This tree will require occasional maintenance and upkeep. When pruning is necessary, it is recommended to only trim back the new growth of the current season, other than to remove any dieback.

True to its name, this variety maintains a somewhat columnar form, with burgindy to red foliage all season long, ending in a fiery display in fall; the dense and narrow upright form makes it wonderfully useful for many garden applications
A beautifully pyramidal shade tree with interestingly shaped leaves that turn red, purple and yellow in fall; somewhat particular about growing conditions; fruit is spiny and can be somewhat messy, use where this will not be a problem
A picturesque specimen tree featuring gracefully weeping golden branches, stunning when overhanging water; needs plenty of wide open space to achieve its best form; tends to drop branchlets, aggressive root system, so do not plant near homes
