HILL 
MITGHO PINE 
(Pinus Mughus) 
Hill Mugho Pine is grown from a se¬ 
lected strain of seed which produces the 
true, many-stemmed, low-branched, dwarf 
type. In a very limited locality in the 
mountains of central Europe the seed of 
this true type is gathered. It is a high 
altitude plant which grows high up on 
the mountain sides. 
It does not have one main stem or trunk, 
but numerous stems which branch out close 
to the ground, spreading horizontally and 
then turning upward in even, regular 
growth. The color is deep green in sum¬ 
mer and winter. 
It seldom grows over 4 to 5 feet tall, but 
spreads out 6, 8 or more feet in diameter 
when full grown. By annual shearing it 
can be kept as small as desired. The 
growth is dense and the plants are thickly 
covered with heavy, dark green needles. 
It is fairly tolerant of shade and it will 
grow on the north side or the shady side 
of a building quite successfully. It is with¬ 
out question the outstanding dwarf Ever¬ 
green tree for all-round uses.
