Pinus nigra ´Frank´
Black Pine
Zone 3-7
4"-6"/ year
6´-8´´/ 10 years
upright, columnar
This is our favorite columnar Austrian Pine. It stays very tight, while reaching a height of about 6 ´ in 10 years. The dark green needles and compact, upright form make this an excellent choice for contrasting other flat or rounded perennials in the garden. A swath of yellows, reds or golds in a nearby blanket of annuals, would also be a stunning statement.
