Pinus parviflora Eiko Nishiki

Pinus parviflora ‘Eiko Nishiki’ is a striking variegated selection of Japanese white pine valued for its elegant form and ornamental foliage. This slow-growing pine forms an upright to broadly conical habit with soft blue-green needles accented by creamy yellow variegation, creating subtle but eye-catching contrast throughout the growing season. The variegation is most pronounced on new growth, adding seasonal interest without overpowering the plant’s refined structure. Typically reaching 6–10 feet tall and wide, ‘Eiko Nishiki’ thrives in full sun and well-drained soil and adapts well once established. Its unique foliage, collector appeal, and classic Japanese garden character make it an excellent specimen for focal plantings and refined landscapes.
