Bosnian Pine is a slow-growing evergreen with a dense pyramidal form when young. It has the potential to grow to 70' tall in its native environment but is more likely to reach only 25 to 30' in the landscape. In the Pirin Mountains of Bulgaria there is a 70' tall Bosnian Pine estimated to be over 1300 years old! Young cones are purple and turn brown as they mature and the seed they produce is edible. Bosnian Pine prefers full sun and once established is quite tolerant of high pH soils and drought. It is also disease resistant and can be used in the landscape where an evergreen or pine is desired and space is limited.
