Pinus koreansis Morris Blue

Pinus koraiensis ‘Morris Blue’ is a striking selection of Korean Pine prized for its soft, silvery-blue needles and elegant pyramidal form. The long, graceful needles grow in bundles of five and create a refined texture that stands out beautifully against darker green conifers. This hardy evergreen develops a dense, symmetrical structure over time, making it an excellent specimen tree for landscapes, collectors’ gardens, and large garden settings.

Slow to moderate growing, ‘Morris Blue’ performs best in full sun with well-drained soil and adapts well to cold climates. Its unique blue coloration and strong architectural presence make it a standout conifer that provides year-round interest in the garden. Ideal for conifer enthusiasts, it adds color, structure, and long-term beauty to the landscape.
