Pinus densiflora ‘Burke’s Red Variegated’

Burke’s Red Variegated Japanese Red Pine

Bright green and yellow bands decorate the needles of this variegated Japanese red pine, and the creamy-butter coloring becomes more vibrant in summer.  Vigorous and easy to grow compared to other variegated forms, this “dragon eye” pine tolerates diverse site conditions and does not burn in winter. Also known as ‘Red OD Burke,’ it develops an irregular but majestic form with orange-red exfoliating bark. Striking.
