Pinus flexilis is an evergreen tree that grows 20'-30' tall at a slow to moderate pace. It has a thick trunk, open round top, and many limber branches that may droop. Cones are 5" long, oval or cone shaped, buff to buff-orange. Needles are blue green in color. It prefers moist, well draining soil. This pine is used for bonsai.
