Nice! How long have you had it?

I'm a big fan of Pinus cembra (Swiss Stone Pine) after seeing them in situ on my honeymoon. I currently have one in the garden but having one potted for Christmas is a great idea. They grow so slowly, they could make an awesome potted tree.

Pinus cembra

Cheers.
Jim

Hi, Jim.

The Pinus cembra looks beautiful. I like the color and it's full.

I had mine for a week already. It's unlike a lot of pines I've seen.

The branches that the pine needles are on, are fleshy instead of woody. It's got a soft kind of appearance to it.
