Sciadopitys verticillata

The unique Japanese umbrella pine, with whorls (verticils) of glossy dark green needles. This rare conifer has a sculptural form and enduring appeal in any garden. Instead of needle clusters, it bears thick, lance-shaped, glossy green foliage in radial whorls (umbrellas) at the ends of branches. The architectural silhouette is sculptural whether viewed close-up or in the landscape.
