Pinus Mugo La Cabana | La Cabana Mugo Pine - Height 75cm - Width 50-60cm - 15

Pinus mugo 'La Cabana' is a cultivar of the mountain pine, a species native to the high elevations of the European Alps. This dwarf conifer is a popular choice for gardens, rockeries, and alpine plantings due to its attractive evergreen foliage and compact growth habit. 'La Cabana' is a slow-growing cultivar, typically reaching a mature height of just 1-2 meters with a similar spread. Its dense, dark green needles are arranged in pairs, giving the tree a bushy appearance. In spring, 'La Cabana' produces small, inconspicuous male flowers and slightly larger female flowers that mature into brown cones. This cultivar is highly adaptable to a range of growing conditions, but prefers well-draining soils and full sun to part shade. It is drought-tolerant once established, and can also tolerate cold temperatures and harsh winter conditions. As a result, it is a popular choice for alpine and rock gardens, where it can add interest and texture to rocky slopes and other challenging locations.
