Pinus canariensis (Canary Pine Tree)

20 (50) m, Canary Pine Tree makes very long (up to 30cm in lenght !) and stunning colored bluish green young leaves, which make nicely contrast to the reddish brown bark on older plants. Pinus canariensis is a living fossile and the closests living relatives are growing in the Himalaya region - thousands of kilometers eastwards from the Canary islands. This species grows rather slow and requires full sun for its' leaves to color intensively. Temporarily endures slight freezing down to -5°C in winter in a sheltered and dry position. In colder regions preferably grow under frostfree conditions throughout the year at a winter minimum of some 5°C.
