Pinus mugo ‘Ophir’ is a dwarf, evergreen Mugo Pine of great beauty during all seasons. It forms a dense, globose mound with a flattened top. Its needles are pale yellow-green in spring and summer, turning rich golden in winter. Occasional insignificant flowers produce small pine cones. Brightening the garden as the season darkens, ‘Ophir’ is an extremely slow-growing pine that adds about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of new growth annually. A perfect choice for small gardens and containers!
