Grows 3' - 12' ht x 3' - 12' sp
Native to the Atlas Mountains in northern Africa, this tree’s 1” long, rich, blue needles and sculptured trunk and branches make it a well-loved specimen that needs room to grow in the landscape. Starting off loosely pyramidal, it becomes more flat top and 'hung-down' as it ages. Its drooping branches have no well-defined leader, but can be controlled by training its central leader. Keep away from sidewalks and streets and give the branches plenty of room to stretch. Avoid excessive pruning.
