Austrian Pine – Pinus nigra Seeds | 800 Seeds | Hardy Evergreen Tree | Fast Growing | Windbreak & Bonsai

Establish large-scale evergreen plantings with Austrian Pine (Pinus nigra), also known as European Black Pine. This hardy, fast-growing conifer forms a dense pyramidal shape in youth and matures into a broad, spreading crown with rugged, deeply furrowed bark that becomes more striking with age.

Highly adaptable, Austrian Pine tolerates cold winters, heat, drought, wind, salt spray, and urban pollution. It is an excellent choice for windbreaks, privacy screens, mass plantings, highway use, and difficult landscape conditions. Its stiff, dark green needles provide year-round structure and color, and it is also well-suited for bonsai and topiary training.
