Pinus banksiana 'Uncle Fogy'
Have you ever had a relative who’s a tad eccentric but also really endearing? Meet the pine family’s version of that relative, ‘Uncle Fogy’.
A Pinus banksiana cultivated variety that is one the most interesting plants you can add to your garden, with a growth habit that can spread on the ground or sprawl over a wall. Each of these plants is one of a kind.
Every spring, exaggerated candles start to grow that are covered with sparkling, oozing resin holding next year’s new growth.
‘Uncle Fogy’ is both a celebration of color and shape and also that endearing and eccentric relative we all have.
