Oregon Green Pine (Pinus nigra 'Oregon Green') is a slow-growing, dwarf Austrian pine with a tidy, upright habit and striking dark green needles. Its dense, symmetrical branching gives it a naturally formal look, making it ideal for use as a specimen tree, accent in foundation beds, or focal point in rock gardens. The long, stiff needles provide strong texture, while its moderate size fits well into smaller spaces. Hardy and adaptable, this pine tolerates wind, drought, and poor soils once established—offering beauty with very little fuss.
