The Scots Pine ‘Louisiana Lake’ is a charming dwarf cultivar of the classic Scots Pine, perfect for smaller UK gardens. This compact evergreen brings the beauty of pine trees to spaces where full-sized conifers wouldn’t fit.
‘Louisiana Lake’ is known for its dense, rounded growth habit. It forms a neat, globe-shaped shrub that rarely exceeds 1-1.5 metres in height and width, making it ideal for rock gardens or as a focal point in mixed borders.
The needles of ‘Louisiana Lake’ are a striking blue-green colour, giving the plant a cool, refreshing appearance. In winter, the foliage may take on purple tones, adding extra interest to your garden during the colder months.
This cultivar is slow-growing, typically adding only a few centimetres each year. This slow growth rate means it won’t outgrow its space and requires minimal pruning to maintain its shape.
Like its larger cousins, ‘Louisiana Lake’ is hardy and adaptable. It thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade. It prefers well-drained soil but is not fussy about soil type, making it suitable for various garden conditions.
Scots Pines are native to the UK, and while ‘Louisiana Lake’ is a cultivated variety, it still provides valuable habitat for native wildlife. Birds often use its dense foliage for shelter or nesting sites.
This dwarf pine is low-maintenance once established. It’s drought-tolerant and resistant to many pests and diseases, making it a hassle-free choice for busy gardeners.
By planting ‘Louisiana Lake’, you’re bringing a piece of Scotland’s rugged beauty into your garden in a manageable size. It’s a perfect way to enjoy the charm of pine trees without worrying about them overwhelming your space.
Perfect planted in the garden or as a bonsai subject.
Supplied in a 2 litre pot. Approx 30cm.
