Comments:
A selection of deciduous conifer found at and by The Dawes Arboretum as a witches'-broom on one of our wild-origin plantation specimens, it appears to be rounded to slightly conical in habit with bronze needles when sited in bright light. Estimated growth should be 4-6 feet tall and wide in 10 years. A fantastic option for a medium-growing focal point or specimen plant.
