dwarf pine
Stunted mountain conifer
Dwarf pine refers to any of several pine species that remain small, either naturally or through cultivation.
Some are alpine species stunted by harsh conditions: Dwarf pines clung to the rocky slope.
Others are ornamental varieties bred for compact growth in gardens and containers.
The term applies loosely—what counts as dwarf depends on context.
