Nice find indeed ..

Yes it is, also the cones could be interesting to find nice dwarf forms...

Cool Janusz.

Great find, Jan!

*drooling*

Edwin is right. The real treasure in this broom may well lay in the cones. Plant them and see what happens. :)

Oh, and by the way, welcome to the GardenWeb! I think I speak for all when I say that I really appreciate when the pros chime in. I just became aware of your nursery last month at the Portland Yard, Garden & Patio show. Next road trip to Oregon, you are definitely going to be my destination.

Nice grafting job, Milan!

Edwin, thank you for the compliment.....

Milan, what's the name given to this broom?

Hey, Edwin.

The name it was supposed to have was 'Tigard' because that is the city in Oregon where the broom was found.
However, it was published as 'Tiger' due to some miscommunication from what I understand.
Therefore, I believe the proper name, with the finder's permission, is Pinus contorta 'Tiger'.

-Sam

What variety of P. contorta is this? It looks like a beautiful broom.
