The extremely slow-growing, dense, bun-shaped Pinus mugo ‘Mitsch Mini’ sports so many short branchlets and slightly twisted, short needles that the surface almost appears smooth. A TRUdwarf® mugo selected by John Mitsch of Aurora, Oregon, the reliable, consistent pine takes on a frosted look when its waxy buds emerge. Site this distinctive beauty in a prime location in the rock garden, trough or miniature railroad. Mature size: 1’H x 2’W Zone 2
