Podocarpus, or Buddhist Pine, is an elegant evergreen conifer prized for its dense, needle-like foliage and slow, compact growth. Its upright, narrow form and neat, symmetrical habit make it a popular choice for formal gardens, hedges, or specimen plantings. The leaves are soft and glossy, creating a refined, architectural appearance that works beautifully in both traditional and contemporary landscapes.
This versatile conifer thrives in a variety of soil conditions and is resistant to drought, urban pollution, and coastal winds, making it well-suited for gardens in challenging environments. With its minimal care requirements and evergreen presence, Podocarpus offers a sophisticated, low-maintenance solution for year-round greenery and structure.
