Japanese Red Pine

Pinus densiflora

The Japanese Red Pine – Pinus densiflora combines grace with character, featuring attractive orange-red bark and soft, bright green needles. This oriental pine brings a refined presence to gardens, particularly beautiful when mature.

Notable cultivars include ‘Umbraculifera’, forming a distinctive flat-topped dwarf specimen, and ‘Burke’s Red Variegated’, prized for its unique banded needles that create striking seasonal interest. The popular ‘Low Glow’ offers a compact, spreading form ideal for smaller spaces.

Mature trees display striking orange-red bark that peels in thin flakes, creating year-round interest. The soft needles, held in pairs and reaching 8-12cm, are lighter green than most pines, giving the tree a delicate, airy appearance. Spring brings bright red male cones, adding seasonal colour.

Best suited to full sun and well-drained soil, this adaptable pine tolerates various conditions once established. It’s particularly effective as a specimen tree or when grown in the Japanese style, responding well to careful pruning and shaping.
