Pinus parviflora ‘Fukai’ (‘Shikoken’)

Fukai Japanese White Pine

More commonly known as ‘Fukai’. A unique dwarf form that is rarely seen, this selection resembles ‘Ogon’ and ‘Ogon janome,’ but we have found it to be more dwarf.  Its winter needles are golden yellow (similar to ‘Ogon’) and its new growth is banded with yellow variegation (similar to ‘Ogon janome,’ but not as long lasting). Mostly pale greenish-yellow, flush needles are golden.

Hardiness Growth Rate Esposure HxW@10yrs
