Blue Shag Eastern White Pine brings a neat, rounded shape and soft, bluish needles to foundation beds, mixed borders, or accent plantings. This dwarf selection of our native Eastern white pine stays compact with a slow growth rate of just 3 to 6 inches per year, eventually reaching about 6 feet tall and wide. Its dense, globe-like form holds its shape with little to no pruning, while the fine-textured needles provide color and softness through every season.
Dense, globe-shaped habit with no shearing required
Blue Shag naturally grows into a rounded, mounded shape that looks tidy and intentional without regular trimming. The even growth makes it an excellent choice for structured plantings or low-maintenance foundation beds.
Soft needles with striking color
The blue-green needles are grouped in bundles of five and feel soft to the touch. This gentle texture adds a welcome contrast to hardscape or coarser-leaved shrubs. The color holds throughout the year, even in winter, giving structure and life to off-season landscapes.
A slow grower with lasting shape
Growing just a few inches per year, this dwarf pine maintains its shape and size over time. It eventually reaches about 6 feet tall and wide, making it easy to fit into small yards, urban gardens, or layered plantings where space is limited.
Hardy, adaptable, and easy to maintain
As a cultivar of a native species, Blue Shag is well suited to local conditions. It grows best in full sun and well-drained soil, tolerates cold winters, and resists many common pests. Older needles naturally shed in the fall, requiring little cleanup.
