Description

The dense, low-branched, narrow pyramidal form of Pinus cembra is distinctive. Typical of pines it will lose apical dominance and become more broad and flat-topped with age. However, these specimens planted at The Morton Arboretum are approximately 60-75 years old and still strongly pyramidal.
