Pinus parviflora Bergman

Pinus parviflora ‘Bergman’ is a compact, slow-growing Japanese white pine prized for its dense habit and strong blue foliage. This selection forms a rounded to broadly conical shape with tightly held needles that exhibit a pronounced silvery-blue cast, creating bold color contrast in the landscape. Typically reaching 5–8 feet tall and wide over time, ‘Bergman’ performs best in full sun with well-drained soil and is adaptable once established. Its rich color, compact size, and collector appeal make it an excellent choice for specimen use, rock gardens, and refined landscape designs.
