Unique Evergreen

Plant Love
5 years ago

Hey everyone,

Just curious if anyone has evergreen trees or shrubs that aren't typical for their area. Its easy to post pictures even in the winter so I figured it would be a cool subject. The most unique evergreens I have seen are the Concolor Fir, Bistlecone Pine and Swiss Stone Pine. I'm curious if anyone has a Bosnian Pine out there. They look interesting.

    Tsuga canadensis Moonfrost: this one was planted last year and has been doing very poorly. I’ll move it to a shadier location.

    Picea pungens Montgomery: not so unusual but nice.

    Picea glauca Pendula: also not unusual but one of my favourites.

    I also have a couple of Picea pungens Hoopsii, Baby Blue, thuja occidentalis Filiformis and Picea abies Virgata, but no good pics of the last two. They’re swallowed in the vegetation and will have to be moved. Hope you enjoyed!
