(Widowmaker or Big Cone Pine) Not called a "widowmaker" for nothing, the eye-catching cones of this rare, medium evergreen sized tree can weigh several kilograms and be nearly a foot (30cm) long.

The juvenile foliage of young plants is soft and light green in colour, with the needles of established plants being long and dark green in colour.

This is slow growing with us here in Derbyshire, UK and the large cones will not appear until this pine tree is quite established.

Hardy but requires a position with plenty of sun and really well drained soil. Not for instant gratification.

Only a very small number of young plants available this year.
