Pinus contorta var. latifolia ‘Chief Joseph’


This rare conifer transforms throughout the seasons, displaying vibrant summer greens that shift to brilliant golden yellows come autumn. A prized addition to any serious plant collection, Chief Joseph develops slowly and resists easy propagation, making specimens particularly valuable. Native to Oregon's Wallowa Mountains, this lodgepole pine thrives in well-draining soil with cool winters and temperate summers. Its deliberate growth habit and distinctive seasonal color changes make it an exceptional choice for collectors seeking unique, slow-growing conifers with genuine horticultural character.

 

Chief Joseph begins shipping during the spring each each season around Mid March. Quantities are limited each year.
