Albyn Prostrate Scotch Pine
Albyn prostrate scotch pine is a low-growing evergreen shrub. It can be used as a groundcover, growing about 6 inches per year. It has a rambling, layered habit, making it a good option for larger spaces or sites where it can cascade over a slope or wall.
Its needles are bluer than hillside creeper. It can be a good alternative to groundcover junipers.
