This exceptional conifer isn't just a tree; it's a living work of art. A vigorous grower, it outpaces other "dragon-eye" pines, adding a foot or more of height annually and developing a majestic, upright, yet wonderfully irregular form.
What sets Burke's Variegated Japanese Red Pine apart is its captivating foliage. Picture whorls of bright green needles, each adorned with striking bands of light butter-yellow in spring, maturing to a richer, more intense yellow in summer. This unique variegation creates the mesmerizing "dragon's eye" pattern, a circular display of color that gives this pine its evocative name. Even better, this vibrant display lasts all year round, resisting winter burn and providing a constant source of visual interest.
