Lacebark Pine

Lacebark pine is a slow-growing evergreen tree. Its most attractive feature is its striking, multicolored bark. As the tree matures, usually after 10 years, the light colored bark begins to exfoliate in large puzzle-shaped plates revealing a mosaic of white, silver and light green on the trunk.

As a young tree, it is quite attractive due to the long, deep green needles. It has a pyramidal shape when young, maturing to a more open form over time.
