Pinus nigra – Austrian Pine


Austrian Pine feature very long, dark green needles and can reach a height of up to 60 feet, with a spread of up to 40 feet (Zones 4-7) at the base.


It is hardy, fast growing and amazingly adaptive, tolerant of wind, cold, road salt, air pollution and dry conditions.


Good for windbreaks.  Austrian Pine also does well in partial shade or full sun. These characteristics make them a very popular evergreen tree.
