Pinus parviflora Pent. Kanrico

Pinus parviflora ‘Pent. Kanrico’ is a distinctive Japanese white pine selection prized for its dense habit and richly colored foliage. This slow-growing pine forms a compact to broadly conical shape with short, softly twisted needles held in five-needle bundles, giving it a full, textured appearance. The foliage exhibits a strong blue-green to silvery cast, providing excellent contrast in the landscape. Typically maturing at 6–10 feet tall and wide, ‘Pent. Kanrico’ performs best in full sun with well-drained soil and adapts well once established. Its compact form, vivid coloration, and collector appeal make it an excellent choice for specimen planting and refined landscape designs.
